SINGAPORE - A motorcyclist who suffered multiple injuries and lost a kidney after a road accident has been awarded more than $356,000 in damages.

“The recovery was complicated. Post-operatively, he developed rhabdomyolysis and suffered from acute renal failure,” said the deputy registrar. “One horrific accident later, he finds himself with multiple fractures, massive scars and one kidney short. His dreams are dashed. Mr De Laure found employment as an associate engineer, and was paid $3,500 per month for his first job out of school. However, he found it too physically taxing due to his injuries.“At the new job, he continues to experience difficulty handling some of the more physical aspects of his work due to his injuries. He is paid $2,400 per month at his present job,” said Deputy Registrar Kim.
