you can ask the company for a open delivery or else you if you found the goods defective lodge a claim with the said cargo company which will be rejected but it is essential for you to lodge a claim before the consumer court. please take intial steps by issuing notice and other formalities and appoint an independent surveyor for assessing the loss etc., then only you can file a criminal case or consumer complaint against the company

Hi
You can file a consumer complaint against the indian representative of Air Link for deficiency of services and also for damages on account of goods stolen from your cargo.
Hopefully you have all the documents (shipping bill, bill of lading etc) with you for filing a consumer complaint.
Before filing a consumer complaint, you are required to issue legal notice to AIR Links at both Jeddah and their indian representative office

Send a legal notice with a list of missing items from the cargo, demanding Jeddah Cargo Office in Hyderabad and in Saudi Arabia to pay you damages for you lost items. If you don’t hear from them in stipulated period then book a criminal complaint with police on them for cheating simultaneously you can initiate a suit for damages. Most of the time reputed companies settles the matter once they get Legal Notice to avoid legal consequences, if not you don’t have choice taking help of court in your local jurisdiction. Good luck.
