A search team is still searching for a man who went missing after an accident that claimed five lives earlier this morning. A bolero pick-up truck with six people in it veered off the road and fell around 500 metres below the road near Threlphu village under Kangpar Gewog in Trashigang.
The incident happened at around 7:30 am today. Three men and three females were on their way to a crematorium for a funeral. While officials have recovered the bodies of five passengers including a 15-year-old girl student, a man is still missing.
A source says the driver has no license and its suspected that he might have fallen asleep behind the wheel.
