Compensation of 300,000 dirhams to an Afghan national who was injured in a car accident.

After a year of legal battles, the court has ruled in favor of Rahim Majidi and his family.

On January 15, 2022, in Ras Al Khaimah, the car in which Rahim and his family were traveling had a flat tire and overturned, causing an accident. The court found that the accident occurred when Rahim tried to turn the car suddenly without paying attention to the curve of the road, and the Traffic Criminal Court fined him 1,000 dirhams and released him.

Rahim and his family, who were seriously injured in the car accident and did not know what to do, thought it was their fault and approached YAB LEGAL SERVICES - CEO and social activist Salam Pappinissery for compensation. Later, through his intervention, they submitted medical reports and police reports to the Insurance Authority and registered a case for compensation against a leading insurance company in the UAE.

However, according to the documents submitted, Rahim and his family did not suffer any significant injuries and the amount demanded was excessive and requested to be reduced from it. However, Rahim's lawyer also submitted a memorandum with strong documents including medical reports.

The insurance company's arguments could not stand up to the documents and arguments submitted by Rahim's lawyer in court. The insurance authority asked the insurance company to pay 300,000 (three hundred thousand) dirhams and 5% of its profit as compensation, as Rahim's vehicle was insured by the opposing party and according to the medical report, Rahim and his family had suffered serious injuries.
