Theft occurred at a event due to inadequate security


26-Mar-2024 (In Consumer Court Law)
We had booked a banquet hall/hotel for a function. During the event a car came inside the premises whose number plate was hidden. It remained inside for about 50 minutes. The thief’s were used this car to stole our bag which had cash and jewellery given by relatives attending the function. The security given by motel was standing besides that car and even talked to one of the person who was involved in theft. I am looking for remedy to get compensation from the motel. Can we go to consumer court

You should immediately approach the police station according to your jurisdiction and register a FIR against the motel. Without this there will be no pressure for the motel authorities to compensate you. It seems that it all was pre-planned. For more legal assistance I am just a call away.

yes you can file in the consumer court for defective service provided by the court;
if you have a bill and some photos evidencing that you booked the Hotel;
the process is very simple ,at first send a legal notice Asking the amount you lost in a hotel, if they compensate you,you can file a case .

Well, in that case the remedy for you can be dissected into 2 wayouts. One a criminal complaint against the unknown accused, which you have already must have filed and implicating the security staff and hotel under conspiracy.

second, filing a consumer case as well a recover case because of the Promise or assurance to service and deficiency and denial of services thereof by the banquet. you can seek compensation and also seek recovery of the amount from them. The exact remedies can be advised after ascertaining the actual facts of the case.

If you possess sufficient evidence, bills and images of the goods, you should certainly consider approaching the consumer court. You can seek necessary damages. Additionally, I would recommend filing a theft complaint as well.
