Three children were crushed under the wheels of a train in the capital's Mohakhali area early Saturday, Government Railway Police (GRP) said.
Though the identities of the victims could not be known immediately, they were aged between 12 to 13 years.

He also said that the accident might have occurred around 6 am when the train was going to the airport from Kamalapur station.
On information, railway police rushed to the spot and recovered the bodies.
“We are trying to find the identities of the children," said the officer.
