Three mourners died in another road traffic accident involving a pick-up Ford Bantum on Saturday at around 1:15am in Rutenga.
The Ford Bantum was travelling along Neshuro-Matibi Road with seven passengers and a dead body on board.
"On approaching the 1km peg, the driver failed to drive up a steep slope and the vehicle rolled backwards until it fell into Chishonga River.
Three passengers who were in the loading box drowned while the other four passengers managed to swim out of the river," Snr Asst Comm Charamba said.
