“They sustained head injuries and were pronounced dead upon arrival at DeaYang Luke Hospital and Kamuzu Central Hospital respectively,” Ngwira said.

The Vitz driver has sustained a fractured right femur while the minibus driver sustained minor injuries.

Two passengers in the minibus have sustained fractured left arm and leg respectively while other passengers, including a woman, sustained soft tissue injuries.
