Kathmandu. A Nepali woman who was sleeping at home died when an uncontrolled car entered her house in Australia. Bishnu Kumari Gurung, who was sleeping at her daughter's house, died in an accident on Friday night. According to the family, she had reached Australia from Nepal only 3 days ago.

The deceased Nepali woman, 53-year-old Bishnu Kumari Gurung, was also known as Himali.
