MANSEHRA: Body of a man, who had gone missing nearly three decades ago in the remote mountainous Spat Valley of Kolai-Palas (Kohistan) district has been recovered after the glacier that buried him melted rapidly due to unusually hot weather.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe body of a man, who was swept away by a glacier over 28 years ago, has been found by locals after the massive glacier melted in recent days,\u201d district police officer Amjad Hussain told reporters on Monday.<\/p>\n
According to locals, the deceased, identified as Naseerudden, was buried under the glacier along with his horse while returning from Allai area of Battagram.<\/p>\n
They said the man was associated with cattle trade. His body was found intact and still recognisable, and his national identity card was also recovered from his clothing.<\/p>\n
\u201cA group of visitors spotted the body and informed nearby villagers, who buried it at a local site and later informed the bereaved family,\u201d DPO Hussain said.<\/p>\n
He said Naseerudden had left behind a daughter and a son, who were still alive and currently residing in the Allai area of Battagram.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe rumours are circulating that the man was murdered, but these are entirely baseless. His brother survived the tragedy,\u201d Mr Hussain clarified.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the time of the incident, the family and residents even attempted to search 150 feet deep into the glacier but were unsuccessful,\u201d a resident said. \u201cNow, the body would be shifted to our native village in Koz Shayar, Gohir Abad, for formal burial.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
