Three-year-old girl who died falling from balcony is named



AJMAN // A girl who died on Monday when she fell four floors from the balcony of her home has been named as Joudi Ameen from Egypt.

Initial information suggested that she was 10 years old, but she was, in fact, only three. She fell from her apartment in Al Nuaimia, Ajman, after seeing her mother down below.

Doctors at Sheikh Khalifa Hospital tried in vain to save her life.

Dr Wajih Al Sisi, consultant and head of the orthopaedic department at Sheikh Khalifa Hospital, said: “She was first taken to the GMC Hospital, which is the nearest hospital to her residential area, and they resuscitated her and then called the specialist and brain consultant at Khalifa Hospital to transfer her from there and she came by National Ambulance with an anaesthetist.”

The girl’s heart stopped beating twice, Dr Al Sisi said, first at GMC Hospital and then in the ambulance en route to Khalifa Hospital.

“Her heart had stopped beating less than 15 minutes before her arrival at the hospital. We tried to resuscitate her, but she died because she had a fracture in the bottom of the skull and brain laceration,” Dr Al Sisi said.

Police are investigating the death. A witness on Tuesday told of how the girl’s mother was screaming and in tears at the hospital when she learnt of her daughter’s death.

The major Hashd factions linked to Iran:

Badr Organisation: Seen as the most militarily capable faction in the Hashd. Iraqi Shiite exiles opposed to Saddam Hussein set up the group in Tehran in the early 1980s as the Badr Corps under the supervision of the Iran Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). The militia exalts Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei but intermittently cooperated with the US military.

Saraya Al Salam (Peace Brigade): Comprised of former members of the officially defunct Mahdi Army, a militia that was commanded by Iraqi cleric Moqtada Al Sadr and fought US and Iraqi government and other forces between 2004 and 2008. As part of a political overhaul aimed as casting Mr Al Sadr as a more nationalist and less sectarian figure, the cleric formed Saraya Al Salam in 2014. The group’s relations with Iran has been volatile.

Kataeb Hezbollah: The group, which is fighting on behalf of the Bashar Al Assad government in Syria, traces its origins to attacks on US forces in Iraq in 2004 and adopts a tough stance against Washington, calling the United States “the enemy of humanity”.

Asaeb Ahl Al Haq: An offshoot of the Mahdi Army active in Syria. Asaeb Ahl Al Haq’s leader Qais al Khazali was a student of Mr Al Moqtada’s late father Mohammed Sadeq Al Sadr, a prominent Shiite cleric who was killed during Saddam Hussein’s rule.

Harakat Hezbollah Al Nujaba: Formed in 2013 to fight alongside Mr Al Assad’s loyalists in Syria before joining the Hashd. The group is seen as among the most ideological and sectarian-driven Hashd militias in Syria and is the major recruiter of foreign fighters to Syria.

Saraya Al Khorasani:  The ICRG formed Saraya Al Khorasani in the mid-1990s and the group is seen as the most ideologically attached to Iran among Tehran’s satellites in Iraq.
