A 70-year-old woman tragically lost her life on April 4, 2026 in the town of Maseni, after a domestic accident that has shocked both her community and users on social networks.
The victim, identified as Sarla Katiyar, was helping her grandson park an SUV-type vehicle at the family home when the incident occurred. According to police reports, the car, a Mahindra Thar, suddenly moved backwards allegedly due to the handbrake not being activated.

The event was recorded by video surveillance cameras, whose images began to circulate widely in local and international media, generating reactions of dismay due to the harshness of the accident.
So far, no formal complaints have been filed related to the case, although the event has reignited the conversation about the importance of safety measures when maneuvering vehicles, even in private spaces.
