JA-12B-53-11/2019 (Mahkamah Tinggi)

The appeal was dismissed because the High Court found no appealable error: the CCTV and investigating officer evidence supported the Sessions Court finding of 100% liability against the Defendants; the trial judge properly exercised discretion under s73A to admit employment and salary documents; and the awards for loss of dependency, general and special damages were reasonable and not so extreme as to warrant appellate interference under established standards.
