SINDHULI, April 12: Four Indian nationals died in a car accident that occurred at Kamalamai municipality-3, Gadhigate in Sindhuli along the BP Highway last night. One more traveler sustained critical injuries in the accident.

According to Superintendent of Police (SP) at the District Police Office, Rjkumar Silwal, the car with Indian number plate (BR 06 DD -687) met with the accident at 12.30 last night after it lost control.

The critically injured is being taken to Kathmandu for further treatment. The car was carrying five people abroad. All four dead are male.

SP Silwal further shared that the body of a person has been kept at Sindhuli Hospital while the three others who died on the spot have not been retrieved from the accident site yet.

The car had fallen down some 500 meters off the road. It is difficult to retrieve the bodies due to inaccessible geographical areas. "It takes over an hour to reach the accident site. So, there is difficulty in retrieving the bodies," he added.

Support has been sought from the Nepal Army for retrieving the bodies and the NA team is heading to the accident site, Silwal informed.

Identities of the deceased have yet to be ascertained.
