MULTAN, Pakistan -- Two passenger buses collided head-on in central Pakistan on Monday, killing 25 people and injuring 69, officials said. The accident, which occurred on a dangerous curve in Khanpur town in Rahim Yar Khan district, was likely caused by speeding, said police official Jamshid Shah. Women and children are among the dead and another 69 are thought to be injured. Fatal road accidents are common in Pakistan, where traffic rules are rarely enforced and roads in many rural areas are poor.
