Ajman police have blamed an Arab man and his wife for the death of their five-year-old son who fell down from the ninth floor in the emirate last week.

Quoted by the Arabic language daily Alittihad, a police spokesman said the boy had been left with his younger sister at home on their own.

“The parents left their children at the apartment on their own and took one daughter to see the doctor…the boy was playing on the balcony on his own when he plunged down…this is negligence on the part of the parents,” the spokesman said, adding that the case had been transferred to the prosecutor.
