On 13th October, 2021 I received evidence for assessment of damages. I will
analyse the evidence later. I wish to, first give a brief account of the facts
attendant.
BRIEF FACTS
On 13th December, 2017 at about 5 hours, the 1st Defendant was driving
motor vehicle Nissan Caravan Minibus, Registration Number KA 8089 from
the direction of Kasungu heading towards Lilongwe, along Kasungu/Lilongwe
Ml Road, with fee-paying passengers on board, including the deceased. Upon
arrival at Chakalamba Village, he negligently drove the motor vehicle by
excessively overspeeding to the extent that he lost control of it and veered to
the offside dirt verge where the motor vehicle overturned several times. The
deceased sustained serious injuries, and she eventually died on the 30th of
March, 2018.
