At least three people have died after a car veered out of control and plunged into a roadside ditch in Dinajpur Sadar.
Two others were injured in the accident that took place on the Dinajpur-Rangpur Highway on Tuesday, according to Kotwali Police Station SI Sourav, reports bdnews24.com.
Borno Bosak, 22, Imon, 23, and Shawon, 24, both identified with a single name, died on the spot. Rownak Nabi Priyo, 23, and Tamjid, 19, suffered severe injuries and are currently in hospital care.
