A Sri Lankan living in New Zealand has been sentenced after a court found that a used vehicle was sold with a tampered odometer, misleading a buyer about the car’s actual mileage.
Before sentencing, Carporium agreed to buy back the vehicle for the original purchase price of NZ$24,000. The court also ordered the company’s director to pay NZ$1,000 in emotional harm reparation, while Carporium was fined NZ$5,000.
