The girl, Shehariz — a student of Indian School Salalah — was travelling with her father Tahir when the vehicle overturned after hitting a camel.

 

"They had gone to Muscat during the Eid holidays. And from Muscat, the father and daughter were going to Jalan Bani Bu Ali to meet their relatives when the incident happened," Nobin M.G., Administrative Officer of Indian School Salalah said.

While her father escaped with minor injuries, she was declared dead after she was taken to a nearby hospital.

"The relatives are now taking her body for burial to Salalah," a social worker said.
