Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals concerning the enhancement of compensation awarded by the High Court in motor vehicle accident claims. The Court found that the High Court erred in determining the disability percentage for the appellant, who suffered significant injuries including amputation, and held that the appropriate disability should be assessed at 30% as determined by the Tribunal. The Court ultimately upheld the Tribunal's decision regarding compensation, emphasizing the need for accurate assessment of injuries and disabilities in such cases.
