KATHMANDU, March 14 (Xinhua) -- Seven people including an infant died after a jeep veered off a highway in Nepal's Udayapur district on Thursday morning.

"We have rescued nine people alive who are receiving treatment at different hospitals," Roshan Thapa, police spokesperson of the district, told Xinhua.

Police suspected that overloading and the sloppy road could have led to the fatal accident.

The jeep was carrying 16 people and the road section was narrow with turns when the accident occurred.

Traffic accidents generally leave hundreds of people dead every year in Nepal. Enditem
