Three Indian expats killed in UAE road accident

Abu Dhabi - The trio were going to Oman.

Three Indian expats were killed after their car crashed into a vehicle in Al Ain. An official at the Indian Embassy identified the deceased as Ramkumar Gunasekaran, 30; Subash Kumar, 29; and Senthil Kaliyaperumal, 36. Hailing from the south Indian state of Tamil Nadu, the deceased used to work at a company in Abu Dhabi's Mussafah.
Samad Pomthanam, a social worker based in Al Ain, said: "The incident happened around 3am on Friday. The vehicle they were in crashed into another in front of them. Two of them died on the spot and Gunasekaran passed away at the hospital."
Pomthanam said the trio were going to Oman, but had to return from the border because one of them was ineligible to enter the country due to his profession. "They were on their way back when the crash happened," said Pomthanam. "We are finishing the paperwork and formalities with the local authorities concerned and hope to repatriate the bodies back home in a day or two."
