KUALA LUMPUR (May 25): The High Court in Seremban on Thursday (May 25) upheld a lower court decision that the Public Works Department (JKR) and government are liable for causing the injuries of an 18-year-old motorcyclist five years ago when an uprooted tree landed on him on a federal road. Judge Datuk Azizul Azmi Adnan ruled that if JKR had properly monitored and maintained the tree, Iqmal Izzuddeen Mohd Rosthy would not have suffered his serious injuries. The judge also upheld the RM216,949 damages awarded to Iqmal Izzuddeen for his injuries, medical expenses and future medical expenses.
