Summary

The Qatar Financial Centre Civil and Commercial Court ruled in favor of Mohammed Afzal Hussein against Gulf Insurance Group BSC. The court dismissed the defendant's objections to its jurisdiction and ruled that Hussein's claim was not time-barred by statutory limitation. The case originated from a 2019 motor vehicle accident in Doha, involving a vehicle insured by the defendant. The court found that the insurance policy allowed third-party claims and rejected the defendant's argument based on labor legislation. The defendant was held liable for the claimant's legal costs and given 14 days to amplify its defense.
