The Filipino lifeguard, aged 31, is reported to have left the pool to get more towels and when he returned was informed by two children that a swimmer was lying motionless at the bottom of the pool. The lifeguard’s attempts to resuscitate the man were unsuccessful and he was eventually taken to Rashid Hospital where he died two days later.
The incident, which took place on July 22, 2012, was witnessed by two brothers from Belgium aged 14 and 11 who reported the accident and saw the victim swimming in the pool before climbing out. "About a minute later he dived back in, but he did not come up again and just remained on the bottom motionless," the elder brother is reported to have said.
