A 28-year-old Indian expatriate was killed when his motorbike skidded off the road on his way to work in Qatar's Umm Salal Ali area.

The victim, identified as Sajjid Ali, was an engineer with a private firm. Ali leaves behind his wife and one-year-old son, both in Doha. His father Mohamed Ali , a long-time Doha resident, is working in a private automotive firm. The family hails from Kannur district in northern Kerala.

This was the second death involving a bike rider in a fortnight. A local youth was killed in a motorbike accident near Al Thumama Signal earlier this month.
