This appeal is preferred against the award of the Motor
Accidents Claims Tribunal, Kozhikode in O.P.(MV)1295/01.
The claimant, a minor boy aged 15 years sustained injuries
in a road accident. He had sustained a fracture on the
metacarpal with minimum soft tissue injury. Exts.A2 and A3
would show he had visited the hospital. Taking into
consideration the fact that the boy had sustained a fracture
on the metacarpal coupled with the soft tissue injury I
enhance the compensation by Rs.4,000/-.
In the result the MACA is partly allowed and the
claimant is awarded an additional compensation of
Rs.4,000/- with 7% interest on the said sum from the date of
petition till realisation and the insurance company is directed to
deposit the same within a period of sixty days from the date
of receipt of a copy of the judgment.
M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE.
