On the facts the High Court allowed the appeal on quantum, finding evidence supported a deduction of one-half (½) of the deceased's net monthly income (RM1,170) as reasonable for the deceased's own living expenses; quantum for loss of dependency was recalculated at RM112,320 (½ x RM1,170 x 196 months) and costs of RM3,000 awarded to the appellant; appellate interference was justified because the Sessions Court's allowance required correction on the facts and proper application of principles.
