According to the source, the suspected gang had flagged down their oncoming vehicle, but the driver of the bus had failed to obey and stop, resulting in that the kidnappers shooting at their tyres, which burst, causing the vehicle to somersault and leading to the death of all the passengers on board.

The source indicated that the remains of some of the dead were returned to Dambattta town last night and have been buried according to Islamic rites by their respective families
