The victims were immediately rushed to Maitama Hospital by men of the Maitama Police Division.

An eyewitness, who pleaded anonymity, said the accident was caused by the tipper vehicle carrying gravels, which lost control due to break failure and passed through a narrow bye-pass into the Peugeot car at the express road.

A survivor of the accident, who was rescued by sympathizers, from the tipper was still in shock when our correspondent made effort to talk to him and could not even mutter a word.
