‘Incredible’: The body was found to be almost intact in Pakistan’s melting glacier after 28 years – how did this happen?

The body of a person missing for 28 years has been discovered in a melting glacier in the remote Kohistan region of Pakistan. A shepherd known as Omar Khan, well -protected remains in the Lady Valley located in the eastern mountains of the country, the clothes are still intact.“What I saw was incredible,” Omar was called by the BBC. “The body was intact. The clothes were not even torn.”An ID card was found with a body named Naseeruddin, allowing him to identify him as a person who went missing after falling into a glacier cravus in the area in June 1997.Once the police confirmed that the body was of Naseeruddin, the local people came forward with additional information, Khan said. Naseeruddin, who was married to two children, was traveling on the horse’s back with his brother on the day he disappeared. Both had allegedly left home due to family dispute, according to police, BBC reports. According to the Express Tribune report, his brother, who was with Naseeruddin during the 1997 incident, said he had chosen an unconventional mountain route to avoid possible threats. He recalled the hearing of bullets on his return journey, and in an attempt to escape the attackers, Naseeruddin took refuge in an icy cave, never seen again. At that time a broad discovery was made, but Naseeruddin could not be traced, and a symbolic funeral was held at the location. Finally after 28 years, with the body, his brother is returning to Lady Valley to determine whether to rest there or bring him back to the ancestral home of the family.The low snowfall in the region has exposed the glaciers to direct sunlight, accelerating the process of snow-melting, highlighting how the high temperature is accelerating the glacial melting, reports the BBC.
