In the High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh F.A.O. No. 4883 of 2007 Date of decision: August 12, 2009 Mukhtiar .. Appellant Vs. Vinod Kumar and others .. Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice A.N. Jindal Present: Mr. Rakesh Nagpal, Advocate for the appellant. Mr. Sushil Jain, Advocate for the respondent No.2. Mr. D.P. Gupta, Advocate for the respondent No.3. A.N. Jindal, J Learned counsel for the respondent has brought to my notice that in the criminal case State vs. Vinod Kumar, whereby the driver respondent No.1 was tried, Isham, who is a witness in this case appeared and stated that he could not identify the driver and did not know the number of the offending vehicle which committed the accident. Only Mukhtiar injured appeared in this case and failed to depose about the negligence of the respondent driver, as such, no case for awarding compensation is made out. The claimant has not been fair in his conduct. He allowed the respondent driver to go unpunished and came to claim the compensation before the Tribunal. It goes a long way to prove that the claimant is hand in glove with the driver. Resultantly, finding no merit in the appeal the same is dismissed. August 12, 2009 (A.N. Jindal) deepak Judge
