Admission of guilt not enough for accident claims: Karnataka HC
Monday, 13 November 2023
The Karnataka High Court has reversed a judgment passed in an accident case, stating that the mere acceptance of guilt is not enough for a motor accident claims tribunal to come to a conclusion. The court allowed the appeal filed by United Insurance Company Limited, which had challenged the verdict. The case pertains to an accident between two motorcycles in Kundapur in 2009. The court noted that the date of the accident and the date of the complaint created doubts about the involvement of the vehicle.
