Substantial, general compensatory damages awarded when the manner in which a tort is committed is particularly insulting and humiliating. They are not awarded to punish the defendant, but to compensate the plaintiff for injury to feelings or mental distress caused by the manner in which the wrongful act was committed. Aggravated damages are mainly awarded in respect of the torts of trespass, defamation, intimidation and conspiracy. Wong Kwai Fun v Li Fung (HCA 5810/86, unreported); Ting Kwing Shou Wendahl v Parke & Ors [1987] 1 HKC 450 (HC); Jolliffe v Willmett & Co & Anor [1971] 1 All ER 478; Appleton v Garrett [1996] PIQR 1.
