UNB reports that a Bangladeshi peacekeeper was killed and two others were wounded in a road crash at Dele in Bangui (Central African Republic) on Sunday.

Lance corporal Abdullah Al Mamun, a driver, was named as the deceased.

Sergeant Abdus Samad, 35, artillery and soldier Mokhlesur Rahman, 31, were the wounded.

The accident occurred about 00:25 (local time) when, the ISPR said Monday, the water tanker carrying a team of Bangladeshi peacekeepers plunged into a 20-25 foot deep ditch, leaving Mamun dead on the spot.

The wounded are being treated at a hospital in Bangui and will soon be transferred to Uganda.

While heading to Bangui from Kaga Port, they encountered a disaster.
