The British media BBC reported this information in a report on Monday (September 18) night. According to reports, the stricken intercity coach was traveling in the darkness of night from the city of Huancayo in Peru through the Andes mountain region to the city of Huanta when it plunged into a 200m (650ft) deep ditch at one point. This is what caused the casualty.
