*Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 - Allegations of Negligence of Claimant - Closure of FIR as Mistake of Fact - Effect Thereof* - In this case, the insurance company tried to argue that it was the claimant who was rash and negligent and claimant had caused the accident. Further, the police officer submitted in context of FIR that the case was closed as mistake of fact. It was held that insurance company cannot be exonerated from liability to pay compensation. Accordingly grant of compensation of an amount including an amount of Rs. 1.5 lacs towards pain and suffering was not found unreasonable or excessive. - *UIIC v. Seshadri [2025] GCtR 758 (SC)*
