		</div><p>Eight carriages of a train derailed in southern Pakistan early on Sunday, killing at least one passenger and injuring 40 others, officials said.</p>
<p>The accident happened between Rohri and Sangi stations in southern Sindh province and caused a temporary suspension of services in both directions, said railway official Kamran Lashari.</p>
<p>The cause of the derailment was not immediately clear.</p>
<p>Train accidents are common in Pakistan, where successive governments have paid little attention to improving the poorly maintained signal system and ageing tracks.</p>
<p>Mr Lashari said the 18-carriage train had departed from Karachi for the eastern city of Lahore.</p>
<p>Six of the derailed cars fell into a shallow ditch, and rescue official Muhammad Arshad said darkness and the remote location hampered rescue efforts.</p>
<p>He said the body of the woman who died and 40 injured passengers were taken to hospitals in nearby towns.</p>
<p>It was not known how many passengers were on the train.</p>
<p>Railway Minister Azam Sawati told a local television station that the accident is being investigated and the government will provide financial compensation to relatives of the victims.</p>
