At least 10 people were today killed and 12 injured in Pakistan's Punjab province when a private bus flipped over while making a turn.
Nearly 35 passengers were on-board at the time of the accident as the bus was travelling on the motorway near the Salt Range.
A risky turn and a lack of control on the bus by the driver was said to be a probable cause of the accident, media reports said.
Rescue teams and ambulances soon reached the site of the accident and shifted injured victims to the district headquarter hospital in Chakwal.
The accident resulted in heavy traffic on both sides of the motorway as rescue work was being carried out.
