Ogra blames Shell for oil tanker tragedy, imposes Rs 257m fine

Come on! Accidents do happen all over the world.
And why should Shell pay compensation to the ones those were involved in stealing its property(oil)? If those greedy people were not gathered there to steal oil, there wont have an incident like this. Completely Insane decision.
 
In addition, the regulator ordered the company to pay one million rupees ($9,478) in compensation to the families of each of those killed and half a million ($52,750) for each person injured.
WTF? I can understand the regulator slapping a penalty for technical or license issues but by what authority can they issue judgement and decide the compensation paid to those who lost family members?? Do the laws of Pakistan really permit them to do this?

Another day another drama - there is a slight mistake here half a million is not 52,750$ but 5000$

Do the laws of Pakistan really permit them to do this?

Now let's see if the money reaches the families. Highly unlikely as such fines are usually for the looters to line up their pockets only.
