OREANDA-NEWS. December 05, 2008. Kemerovo-ROSNO branch has paid an insurance compensation of 1,434,600 roubles for the burnt-out Howo truck, reported the press-centre of ROSNO.

The MOD insurance contract for the HOWO vehicle, manufactured in 2007, was concluded in January 2008 by the private client taking this truck on lease.

The truck was stolen from near the residential building, where the insurant had used to leave it for the night. In a few hours, the truck was discovered burning in the dump near the Kalininsky open-pit mine in the town Prokopyevsk. After a few more hours, a thief was found, confessing that he had stolen the truck to remove waste, but, when approaching the dump, lost control of the vehicle: drove down the dump and collided with the dump surface. As a result of this accident, the truck caught fire and burned out completely.

ROSNO has paid the insurance compensation to the leasing company.
