At least 34 people were killed in two separate bus accidents in Pakistan on Sunday. The first accident occurred when a bus carrying Shiite Muslim pilgrims returning from Iraq fell from a highway into a ravine in southwest Pakistan, resulting in the deaths of 12 men. The driver lost control of the bus due to brake failure while passing through Lasbela district. Hours later, 23 people were killed when a bus fell into a ravine in Kahuta district in the eastern Punjab province.
Twenty-two dead till now, including 15 men, six women and one child.
The bus was carrying visitors on its way to Arbaeen (a Shiite ritual) but was turned back at the Iran border because their documents had some problems.
This is a particularly treacherous tract of road, with many twists and turns. The driver was overspeeding and the bus fell into a deep ravine.
I have lost three members of my family.
My father, sister and one-year-old nephew were among the dead. I hoped that at least one of them had survived. It's doomsday for my family.
