A private car plunged off the elevated expressway in Chittagong's port area and fell onto a cyclist below, killing him.
The victim has been identified as Shafiq, 55.
Four passengers inside the car were also injured.
The accident occurred around 4pm on Thursday, when a Toyota Harrier veered off the Shaheed Wasim Akram Expressway and fell.
