The case of Mooradally B. N. v Gunessee R. & Ors (2025 SCJ 62) involved a tragic medical negligence claim: a young woman died after liposuction surgery. Her mother initiated proceedings against the surgeon, clinic, and anaesthetist, arguing that they had breached their contractual obligations and had acted negligently. The judgment has clarified the circumstances under which a plaintiff can base a claim on tort when a contractual relationship exists, particularly in medical negligence cases.
