Dear Law Society, I am writing to report an incident involving Tashriq Ahmed, who charged me R17000 on 16th April 2024 to handle my cousin Zeeshan Rafiq's case. Zeeshan was arrested at Refugee Home Affairs in Cape Town and someone recommended Tashriq Ahmed's services to us. However, I later found out that Tashriq Ahmed had been suspended in November 2023 and failed to show up for the court date. When I asked him to refund my money due to his lack of professional services, he began threatening me. In response, I reported his behavior on Hellopeter for his unprofessionalism and mistreatment of clients. Now he is threatening legal action against me, claiming that his career has been ruined because of my actions. Given that Tashriq Ahmed was already involved in ********* practices prior to this incident, it raises concerns about why he is still allowed to practice law after being suspended. He has a history of providing *****ulent documents and overcharging clients before deporting them. I kindly request that you investigate this matter further and take appropriate action against Tashriq Ahmed for his misconduct. It is important to protect the rights of individuals seeking legal assistance from such dishonest practitioners. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, Asif Khan

Im writing this review from a assertive point of view. Firstly I'm South African and I've been surveying the way refugees are mishandled at the Refugee Home Affairs in Cape Town. These are human beings not animals, expecting them to stand in the cold from early hours in the morning, is completely unacceptable. What happened to equal treatment of all humanity? When you do not treat your own people like this. Your system is seriously lacking, your red identity document books are always delayed and the time period is never correct. Why should these people come all the way to check on documents when a simple sms can be sent to them, whereas South Afri an citizens are notified by Home affairs. These people came here for a better life yet you make there lives unpleasant by the way they are mistreated. Surely these's a better way forward for these purposed individuals. I will be taking action to make sure these silenced cries are heared. There are a few more issues that needs to be addressed. Why should only 10 people per day get the chance to apply for a refugee passport. This procedure is preposterous, you don't do this at SA Home Affairs. For example today is not Congolese and Somalian day? Please hear these people's cries.
