A medicinal Student was killed when a Metro Bus she was going on ran her over in Rawalpindi Friday, police said. 


Sameera, a 19-year-old 2nd year Medical Student  of the Shifa College of Medicine, was commuting to Islamabad when the driver applied the emergency brakes close to the Rehmanabad bus station, because of progressing construction work in the area.


Because of the effect, the bus hit a pole and the door of the metro transport flung open, throwing Sameera out of the bus and onto the road. The student then was run over by the same bus, eyewitnesses and police said. She died on the spot.

A police team from Sadiqabad Police Station reached the scene after the accident and shifted the girl's body to District Headquarters Hospital (DHQ).

Station House Officer (SHO) Sadiqabad Raja Tahir said the driver of the bus had fled after the accident. A First-Information Report (FIR) has been registered against him and the cause of the accident is being ascertained, he said.

After the incident, students of Shifa College of Medicine staged a demonstration outside DHQ Hospital and demanded that the driver of the bus be arrested immediately. They threatened to shut down the Metro bus service if the driver is not apprehended at the earliest.

According to police, the deceased girl hailed from Rahim Yar Khan and was living at Sir Syed Chowk in Rawalpindi. Her body would be handed over to her father, who was travelling to Rawalpindi.

Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif took notice of the tragedy and ordered an inquiry into the accident.
