The incident occurred when a negligent truck driver offloaded grit alongside the boundary wall. The driver and other labourers fled the scene.
The injured were taken to the Civil hospital where nine-year old Aleena Bhatti succumbed to her injuries. The other two children, identified as Farhan Bhatti, 8, and his six-year old brother Rehan Bhatti, have suffered serious head injuries and leg fractures.
Saifullah Bhatti, the boys’ father, said that they would register a case against the transporter.
