Meanwhile, the body of the second deceased whose identity was not immediately established has been deposited at the Sawla Hospital Mortuary mortuary together with Biirbele.

The impact of the crash was so huge that both motorbikes and the two deceased got burnt in the middle of the road.

According to an eyewitness account, the two deceased's were heading towards Sawla from the Damongo stretch.
