An Indian man who was injured in a bus crash in Dubai in 2019 has been awarded Rs 11 crore in compensation. The man, who has not been named, suffered serious injuries when the bus he was travelling in collided with a truck on Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road. The accident resulted in the deaths of 17 people and injured several others.
The man was one of 31 passengers who were injured in the crash. He suffered multiple fractures and had to undergo several surgeries. He was also left with permanent disabilities as a result of the accident. The compensation was awarded by the Dubai Court of First Instance, which found the bus company and the driver of the truck responsible for the accident.
The compensation amount is one of the highest ever awarded in a personal injury case in Dubai. The man’s lawyer said that the compensation would go a long way in helping him and his family deal with the financial burden of his injuries. The lawyer also urged other victims of the accident to come forward and seek compensation. The bus company and the driver of the truck have not yet commented on the ruling.
In conclusion, this case highlights the importance of seeking compensation for personal injuries sustained in accidents. While accidents can be traumatic and life-changing, victims have a right to seek compensation for their injuries and losses. The Dubai Court of First Instance’s ruling sends a strong message to companies and individuals responsible for accidents that they will be held accountable for their actions. It also provides hope to other victims of the 2019 bus crash that they too may be able to receive compensation for their injuries.
