A tragic road accident in Saudi Arabia has claimed the lives of five Pakistani Umrah pilgrims — including three women — and left several others injured, ARY News reported.
The incident occurred when a bus carrying Umrah pilgrims from Al-Badr to Madinah collided with a trailer. According to Saudi authorities, the deceased include three women and two elderly men. Rescue teams responded quickly, transporting the injured — among them women, children, and senior citizens — to nearby hospitals for urgent treatment.
The deceased women were from villages 228/9-R and 201 Murad near Bahawalnagar, while the men were residents of villages 39/3-R and Dahranwala.
National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq expressed heartfelt condolences, praying for the deceased and wishing a swift recovery for the injured. He also directed the Pakistani embassy in Saudi Arabia to provide full support to the affected families and assist the wounded in every possible way.
And as usual . No repercussions, no condemnation, the bodies of the deceased will be treated badly.
I am ok with not going there until they allow standards to be implemented
