At least 29 passengers were killed and one was left injured on Sunday when a coaster traveling from Kahuta to Rawalpindi fell into a ditch, a rescue official confirmed.
“The accident was caused due to the coaster’s failed brakes,” Rescue 1122 Punjab official Usman Gujjar said.
The bodies have been shifted to Tehsil Headquarters Hospital in Kahuta, he said, adding that 26 passengers were on board.
The victims, he added, included 20 men, four women, and a child.
“The tragic accident occurred on the Girari Bridge of Kahuta’s Azad Pattan Road,” the official further stated.
The interior ministry, however, said 29 passengers had died in that crash.
