The Supreme Court (SC) ordered on Sunday bus company 'Sajan Paribahan' to give Tk 1.0 million in damages to the family of Govt Titumir College student Rajib Hasan, who died into one month of a road accident in the city, reports UNB.

A four-member Appellate Division bench, led by Chief Justice Syed Mahmud Hossain, passed the order after hearing an appeal filed by 'Sajan Paribahan'.

The apex court said 'Sajan Paribahan' will have to pay Tk 1.0 million in damages to the victim's family and then it will take into consideration their appeal.
