Park Incident: Operators Face Legal Scrutiny

Negligence cited in entertainment game accident

Operators of entertainment games are firmly in the legal crosshairs following an incident in Al Jabal Al Akhdar Park. Experts assert that neglecting safety protocols does not absolve those in charge of responsibility for harm caused.

Legal Framework for Accountability

Lawyer **Abdel Aziz Al-Fayeh** emphasized that the operators of such attractions bear the ultimate responsibility. He pointed to established legal principles that hold individuals accountable for damages arising from their oversight.

“Whoever takes care of things that requires special attention to their nature or under the regular texts to prevent their harm, was responsible for what these things have caused, unless it is proven that the damage was due to its hand.”

—Abdel Aziz Al-Fayeh, Lawyer

Further underscoring this point, **Al-Fayeh** referenced another legal article.

“Every mistake caused a harm to others who are obligated to make compensation.”

Claims for Psychological Distress

Beyond physical injuries, the incident may also entitle victims to compensation for emotional suffering. Those who experienced significant fear or panic as a direct result of the event can seek redress for psychological damage.

In cases of amusement park accidents, the emotional toll on victims is a significant factor in legal proceedings. For instance, a 2022 report by the National Safety Council highlighted that psychological trauma can be as debilitating as physical injury for accident survivors (National Safety Council, 2022).

Negligence and Legal Liability

The core of the legal argument rests on the concept of negligence. **Al-Fayeh** made it clear that a failure to properly maintain or operate entertainment games is not a defense.
