Dubai: An Indian sales executive and his 11-year-old son have been killed and his wife along with younger son injured in a tragic road accident in Dubai, a media report said on Wednesday.

"Apparently a 4WD car banged their car from behind when they reached Muhaisna," said Praveen Jose, a neighbour of Sunny's family from Kecheri in Kerala.
He said the elder son of Sunny, 11-year-old Alvin, was thrown out of the car due to the impact of the crash and died on the spot. Sunny died on the way to hospital, he said.
Sunny's wife Jolly and second son Edwin, four, have been admitted to Rashid Hospital.
"Edwin has fractured his leg... Jolly is completely shattered and is under sedation. The neighbour said Sunny's family used to live in Dubai earlier. They relocated to Kerala a few years ago.
"The wife and children had come here on a visit due to school vacation in India. They came on April 23 and were scheduled to fly back on this 28th," Jose added.
