Court orders Dh860,000 for causing accident

The Fujairah Court of First Instance yesterday ordered a national, A.S, to pay Dh860,000 to A.A, another national, in compensation for a permanent disability he caused him in an accident.
As per court records, the accident happened in October 2006, when the victim, A.A, was hit by the car being driven by A.S. The accident happened on a road in Dibba.

The victim sustained serious injuries, including multiple fractures, and was rushed to Dibba Hospital for treatment.
A lawsuit was filed at the Fujairah Court of First Instance, where the victim’s lawyer sought a compensation of Dh5 million to compensate for the physical, psychological, and financial damages his client had suffered because of the accident.
The court, in view of the medical reports submitted, ordered A.S to pay A.A a compensation of Dh860,000. Source
