MANSEHRA: A bus driver and a conductor were killed and 23 others were injured when a passenger bus fell into a ravine on Sunday morning. The bus was on its way to Battagram from Lahore when it skidded off the road near Gandiyan village, nearly six kilometres from the city. It is suspected that the fatigued bus driver fell asleep while driving which led to the accident. Rescue workers shifted the injured, including four women and three children, to King Abdullah Teaching Hospital. The deceased were identified as Muhammad Ayaz and Shahbaz.
