Child among 3 killed in motorcycle accident

The accident occurred on the Safipur flyover around 2:30 PM on Wednesday (November 11).

The victims, a man, a woman, and a child, were traveling on a motorcycle. Their identities have not yet been established.

Md. Manjur Morshed, Officer-in-Charge (OC) of the Naojor Highway Police Station, stated that police arrived at the scene promptly after receiving reports of the accident. They discovered the bodies of a child and two adults, who appeared to have been thrown from the motorcycle.

It is not yet clear how the accident occurred, nor is there definitive information regarding whether the motorcycle collided with another vehicle or a structure. Initial police inquiries have failed to locate any eyewitnesses. Furthermore, the absence of CCTV cameras on the flyover has made it difficult to determine the cause of the incident.

The OC added that the police have recovered the bodies. An investigation is currently underway to identify the victims and ascertain the exact cause of the accident.
