Twenty-one people were killed on the N1 when a bus and a truck were involved in a collision near Beaufort West in the early hours of Thursday. The accident happened around 1am about seven kilometres outside Leeu-Gamka, between Beaufort West and Laingsburg. That strip of road is infamous as a ”death run”.
A team of scientists from the University of Pretoria is scheduled to begin excavations on Wednesday to determine whether there is a mass grave outside Laingsburg in the Karoo.
