ISLAMABAD: As many as 19 injured people including women and children shifted to Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (Pims) after a road accident near Tret (on the way to Murree) on Sunday.

According to administrator Pims Dr Altaf Hussain, injured persons included 13 females, 4 children and two males were brought to emergency department.

“All the persons who were injured belong to Gujranwala. Treatment was provided to them and none of them was in very serious condition,” he said while talking to Dawn.

It is pertinent to mention that, on weekends, a large number of the people go to Murree from central Punjab but due to lack of experience, while coming back, divers fail to control the vehicles and end up with an accident. 19 injured in accident shifted to Pims
