Fishmonger claimed for van caught up in Libyan Embassy siege in bizarre Aviva insurance list

Fish caught up in the Libyan Embassy siege and a dentist kicked out a window by a patient are among claims settled by an insurer over the last 325 years.

Aviva revealed some of the more bizarre but valid claims as they marked the anniversary of their operations.

In 1984, a claim was paid to a fishmonger whose van was in the siege at the Libyan Embassy in London.
