Dubai, Jan 12: An 8-year-old Indian boy died after falling out of the car in which he was travelling with his family in United Arab Emirates.
A grade three student of the Indian School in Ras Al Khaimah (RAK), Vismaya Chandran died on Sunday night after falling through the window of the vehicle which was being driven by his father.
The family members were on their way to a picnic at Jebel Jais.
The accident happened after 4.30pm and the boy was rushed to hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
The body is now in the Al Saif Hospital in Ras Al Khaimah and will be repatriated to India.
Vismaya’s father Sajeesh Chandran said he was driving when the accident happened near Al Rams, about four kilometres away from Ras Al Khaimah.
“It skidded off the road and stopped in the middle of rocks and rubble. The glass window was locked, but somehow it opened and he fell out.
“He had a serious head injury and died 45 minutes after reaching the hospital.”
The boy’s mother Deepa and younger sister Thanmaya were also in the vehicle.
“We are all sad that one of our best students died. We reopened school on Sunday, but Vismaya was absent,” said Mohammed Ali, Principal, Indian School, Ras Al Khaiamah.
“The school called for a special morning assembly to condole his sad demise,” he said.
