Sharjah: Aslam Khan Shafiullah, a native of Uttar Pradesh who sustained serious injuries in a car accident in Sharjah's Sanaiya area, has been awarded 14 lakh Indian Rupees (AED 60,000) in compensation by a court. This significant outcome was achieved through the legal intervention of Salam Pappinissery, CEO of YAB LEGAL SERVICES.

The accident occurred on January 7, 2024, in front of the Al Najm Al Haqeeqi Car Care Center in Industrial Area-17, Sharjah. A resident of Kunnamkulam, while reversing his vehicle after washing it, collided with a parked car behind him. Aslam Khan Shafiullah, who was walking between these two vehicles at that moment, was also hit and got trapped between the vehicles. He was immediately admitted to Al Qassimi Hospital for treatment.

The court, acknowledging the negligence of the Kunnamkulam resident as the cause of the accident, fined him one thousand dirhams and released him. However, Aslam Khan, who suffered severe injuries in the accident, initially received no compensation. It was then that his relatives approached Salam Pappinissery, CEO of YAB LEGAL SERVICES.

Salam Pappinissery took on the case and initiated legal proceedings. A compensation claim was registered with the Insurance Authority, complete with necessary documents including medical certificates, the criminal case judgment, and memoranda. After reviewing the documents, the court ruled that Aslam Khan be paid sixty thousand dirhams (14 lakh Indian Rupees) as compensation.
