NEELUM (Dunya News) Four members of the same family, including a husband and wife, lost their lives after a jeep fell into a ravine in Neelum Valley, Azad Kashmir.

The accident occurred when a passenger jeep traveling from Jagran Seri to Goryal went out of control due to the poor condition of the road and plunged into a deep ravine.

According to rescue sources, eight people were on board the jeep; four died on the spot while four others, including two children, were injured.

Rescue officials confirmed that all the deceased belonged to the same family — among them were Alam Awan, his wife, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law.

The bodies have been shifted to the hospital, and the injured are also under treatment.

Officials stated that the tragic incident was caused by the deteriorated road, which has become a major cause of rising fatal accidents in the area.
