26-year-old Indian-Origin Doctor dies in UAE Plane Crash during Sightseeing trip

According to the UAE's aviation authority, initial reports suggested that the glider lost radio contact before attempting an emergency landing. Although emergency responders were quick to the scene and performed resuscitation, both occupants succumbed to their injuries.

Explaining the incident, the doctor's father Majid said as quoted by HT, “At first, we were told the glider had lost radio contact. Later, we were informed it had made an emergency landing and that the occupants had been taken to the hospital. When we reached the hospital, we were told that both were critically injured and undergoing resuscitation efforts. Sulaymaan passed away before we could see him, and his time of death was recorded as past 4.30 pm."

As per a report from Geo TV, the Pakistani woman has been identified as Frianza Parveen. Sulaymaan Al Majid was co-piloting the aircraft with a 26-year-old Pakistani woman.

Majid told Khaleej Times, "We were looking forward to the New Year as a family, planning to celebrate together. Instead, our lives have been shattered. It feels like time has stopped for us. Sulaymaan was the light of our lives, and we don't know how to move forward without him."

Dr Sulaymaan was actively involved with the British Medical Association, serving first as honorary secretary and later as co-chair of the Northern Resident Doctors Committee.
