Four Bangladeshi nationals were killed and 50 others injured in a road crash in the Pail area near Port Louise of Mauritius on Thursday morning.

All the deceased Bangladeshis were workers of construction company Hybec Partner but details about their identities could not be known yet. 

The workers met their tragic end when they were going to work around 7:30am.

An expatriate Bangladeshi said a bus the workers were travelling in crashed into a bus stand after its driver lost his control over steering. 

Bangladesh High Commission in Mauritius said the bodies would be sent home as soon as possible.
