Ahmedabad: Consumer Court has ordered the life insurance corporation to pay Rs 14.6 lakh for 19 different policies with accidental death benefits by considering the insured murder of death.
Parmar Narendrasinh was shot dead by unknown attackers in 2009.
The police put forward but then closed the case because they could not determine why Parmar had been killed and by whom.
Widow Parmar Chetna claims payments for 19 insurance policies are different from unintentional death benefits that Parmar has.
The claim was rejected on the grounds that Parmar was killed and did not die in an accident.
In 2012, Chetna approached the consumer dispute for the Redressal Forum, Ahmedabad (additional), but the Forum refused her complaint.
The dispute reached the Gujarat state-consumer consumer dispute dispute, which ordered the insurance company to pay for claims, holding that Parmar was not a party for murder, did not play a role in provocation, and the direct cause of action was not the result of being intentional.
Acting by the insured.
Unintentional death murder, said the court, asked the insurance company to pay ₹ 15 lakh
