UMM AL QUWAIN // A six-year-old Indian boy was saved from drowning in a hotel pool in Umm Al Quwain on Saturday morning.
Police were alerted at about 9.45am and arrived in less than five minutes to help resuscitate the child and transfer him to UAQ Hospital for further treatment.
Maj Hassan Ali bin Sullam, the director of UAQ Civil Defence, said the parents of the boy were at the swimming pool but did not know what to do when their son began drowning. Maj bin Sullam urged all parents to always keep a watchful eye on swimming children, whether in the sea or swimming pools.

Nepotism is the name of the game
Salman Khan’s father, Salim Khan, is one of Bollywood’s most legendary screenwriters. Through his partnership with co-writer Javed Akhtar, Salim is credited with having paved the path for the Indian film industry’s blockbuster format in the 1970s. Something his son now rules the roost of. More importantly, the Salim-Javed duo also created the persona of the “angry young man” for Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan in the 1970s, reflecting the angst of the average Indian. In choosing to be the ordinary man’s “hero” as opposed to a thespian in new Bollywood, Salman Khan remains tightly linked to his father’s oeuvre. Thanks dad.
