When security officer Jeyaseelan Jaganathan saw a young boy floating face-down in the swimming pool of the condominium where he works, all he could think of was his own seven-year-old daughter.
He had run from the guardhouse after a resident alerted him. He immediately dived in to save six-year-old Raphael.
Last week, he met the boy and his father, Mr Prince Adesanya Gabriel Aderemi, 53, for the first time since the Nov8 incident.
"I owe him my boy's life. Without him, my son would have been dead," said Mr Adesanya, an accountant.
