Three persons including a railway employee were killed after a passenger bus hit by a train, carrying oil, on Airport Road in the Chattogram port city on Monday night.

The deceased were railway pointsman Azizul Haque, 30, and bus passengers Asaduzzaman, 30; and Miton Kanti Dey, 25.

Pointsman Azizul Haque signaled the bus when the oil-laden train was coming. Denying the signal, the bus driver was going ahead that caused the accident.

Then the bus turned turtle and three were critically injured.

They were taken to Chattogram Medical College Hospital where the trio were declared dead.
