what about the claim that person had made of 20 lacs rupees ?

sridhar pasumarthy (ADVOCATE)     07 November 2011

Did the victim filed any petition for compensation.  Even, he could not that much of amount, as per the facts of your case.  If you able to prove that there was no negligence on your part, you will be exonerated from liability. Engage a local lawyer.

I agree with sridhar whether the victim have filed a case for compensation.

dear rajesh,

your information is not sufficient and requiered detail study of charge sheet. still there anr two fact. whether comlainant filed civil suit for compensation or criminal case is pending against y'r friend. by the way all section mention in it are bailable and it depends on in which state offence was registered, but bail can easily obtain.

in this section u'r friends negligent or rushness strictly prove by the prosecution. u have right to take defence of total denial even u can take defence that injuered is not u'r coustomer and u r not service provider. But whatever be defence u take 1 st ly u read all documents of charge sheet and find your naxes with crime which evidence asr against you; u rebute it in court . All though the case 's fact indicates contributery negligence it turn into accident. Good luck.
