20 people killed, 30 others wounded in 2 incidents in Bangladesh

At least 20 people were killed and 30 others wounded in two separate incidents that happened over the weekend in Bangladesh after the holy Eid-ul-Fitr, police confirmed on Sunday.

Six people, three of a family, were buried in mudslide in Bangladesh's southeastern Chittagong port city on Friday night due to heavy rains. The other three persons were of two families.

Chittagong deputy commissioner, head of administration, has given 10,000 taka (nearly 129 U.S. dollars) for the burial of each of the dead persons.

In another incident, at least 14 persons were killed and 30 others injured in a road crash in Western Sirajganj district as two passenger buses, one from capital Dhaka and the other from western Rajshahi, collided head-on at Sirganj, the western end of Bangabandhu Bridge over the Jamuna river in the early hours Saturday.

The injured persons were admitted to different hospitals in Sirajganj, with several passengers in critical conditions. The police feared the death toll might increase.
