A 10-year-old boy was on Sunday evening found dead at a swimming pool in a posh hotel.

Rescuers found Arsad Salim’s body was found at the bottom of Sunset Hotel swimming pool after the mother reported him missing.

Reports say he was among several others who had gone swimming in pool.

According to his father Salim Ombima the boy had been with his mother and two other siblings who were also swimming at the pool.

“I had given them money and my car to go and swim before I received information that he was missing,” said Ombima.

The parents have criticised the hotel for having pool safety procedures for children, adding that the pool was crowded at the time of the incident.
