LEE PRISCILLA SIOK AI v. SECRETARY OF JUSTICE sued for and on behalf of DIRECTOR OF HIGHWAYS
- Citation

- Case number
- HCPI129/2019
Plaintiff's account was inconsistent and not credible such that no reliable accident on the pleaded date was established; independently, the footbridge was a public right of way and the pleaded allegations, if proven, amounted to nonfeasance for which the highways authority owed no duty; alternatively, the Director had an adequate maintenance and lighting inspection regime and did not breach any duty — therefore claim dismissed.
