Who is responsible when police damage my private property slope?
A sewer drainage line runs in front of my house, and the platform of my front and entrance gate is adjacent to it. Since I park my vehicle inside my house, I use a slope built over that drainage for my convenience. Recently, a police vehicle from my local station drove over it while reversing their vehicle, even though they had plenty of space to do so on the main road. As a result, the slope is now damaged, and I am being asked to repair it. Can I file a claim against the police department since the damage was caused by their fault?
Dear Client, yes, you could claim compensation if police caused the damage to your private property slope. You can complain about it by filing a written complaint with the Police Department and attach the photos or proofs of the damage and seek the repair cost. If the issue is not resolved, you can approach the court for compensation. I hope this answer your query, for further queries contact us.
You can file a written complaint with the local police station or send a legal notice to the police department asking for compensation. Include evidence like photos or CCTV footage. If they did not respond, approach the District Legal Services Authority or file a civil claim for damages. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
