    The Bombay High Court dismissed New India Assurance's appeal against the MACT tribunal's compensation award of Rs. 1,25,501 to Mrs. Kamlesh Sevak for motor bike accident injuries. The court rejected the insurer's claim that the insurance policy was fabricated, finding that the company failed to produce an FIR or police investigation to support fraud allegations, and that private investigations cannot substitute for statutory authority inquiries in penal matters. The claimant is entitled to receive the awarded compensation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
