A press release from Princess Marina Hospitals says the deceased was sent to South Africa on December 3. One student remains in the intensive care unit at Princess Marina  while eight others are at various wards.

Princess Marina Hospital received two more students from Bokamoso and Gaborone private hospitals since last week while another student is still hospitalised in South Africa.

The students were admitted at Princess Marina Hospital with various injuries including head injuries, bruises, laceration and fractures among others after a truck they were travelling in was involved in an accident near Dutlwe in the Letlhakeng Sub-district.

Seven students lost their lives in the accident. Ends
