Appellant/petitioner approached the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal contending that he sustained injuries in a motor accident due to the negligence of the driver of the vehicle insured by the second respondent insurance company. In support of the above, he produced F.I.R as well as Ext.A2 which is a self attested copy of wound certificate in the letter head of a private hospital. According to him, he was admitted for a day. Even though it was contended that there was clavicle fracture, appellant did not produce any treatment records. He did not enter into the box. The Tribunal did not accept the self attested copy of the wound certificate. In the F.I.R it is not stated that the appellant has sustained any fracture. Since he was admitted only for one day, the Tribunal did not grant any compensation for disability, but, only Rs.2,000/= was granted for the minor injuries sustained by him. We see no ground to interfere with the award. The appeal is dismissed. J.B.KOSHY JUDGE K.P.BALACHANDRAN JUDGE tks
