My 15-year-old daughter wanted to wear those dresses. I did not want money in return. This happened because of negligence on part of the courier company and air cargo,&rdquo; said Anupama. Courier Company owner, Velji Bhai said that, on my complaint Air Cargo officials had filed the complaint and one loader has been arrested on Wednesday while two others are absconding. Sources from Vile Parle Police station revealed that contents of several other parcels were also recovered from the home of the arrested accused, but Anupama&rsquo;s package could not be recovered. &ldquo;The accused along with other colleagues had stolen many parcels from airport cargo.
