It is one of the last days of the summer holidays. The weather has been fine, there have been lots of bathers.

– We were closed a few days when it rained, for that affects the quality of the water, says Mosaab Katramiz.

On two occasions children have done a number two in the pool, so the baths had to be closed for cleaning.

”The parent wasn't watching her child at all. I told her she must keep a close watch on her child”

During the summer several people have drowned in Sweden, both children and adults. There have been a few incidents at Gamlegårdsbadet. Mosaab has been the hero of the summer.

– A mother with a four-year-old was in the toilet. When they came out, the four-year-old ran straight out and jumped into the water. So I had to jump in and pull him out, he says.

Another time it was a girl who jumped in without realising that it was deep. Mosaab jumped in and rescued her.

– Last year there was one parent who wasn't watching when her child fell into the water.I pulled the child out. The parent was completely unaware I told her she had to keep an eye on her child, but she didn't even say thanks, says Mosaab. The child, a boy, who had fallen in, had learnt a lesson.

– He never went near the pool again, he says.

But Mosaab doesn't want to have his picture in the paper.

You're a bit of a hero around here, don't you want to have your photo in the paper?

– I'll just be a secret hero, he says.
