Victim of train accident sued by Polish railway for causing delay

Poland's state railway has been awarded compensation from a man who caused delays to the service by being run over by a train.

"We are acting in accordance with article 415 of the Civil Code, seeking damages from a person who caused delays in rail traffic - just like anywhere else in the world," said PKP railway spokesman Krzysztof Lancucki.

He said 19-year-old Pawel Banaszek, who was paralysed by the accident, caused 2058 zlotys ($810) worth of losses due to delays in service.

Half the amount was written off and Banaszek is paying the rest in 80-zloty monthly instalments from his 600-zloty disability pension.
