\n\u201cIt has been reported from the Alpine Adventure Guides, \u201cAt the camp 4 have found two bodies below 300m from a bottleneck on K2 Mountain.\u201d Two bodies have recovered near K2 base camp 4 and they may belong to Mohammad Ali Sadpara and Iceland\u2019s John Snorri.
\nIt was learnt that both bodies were found at a great distance from each other, whereas, the bodies are being identified. Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) information minister Fatehullah Khan claimed that the bodies of Mohammad Ali Sadpara and John Snorri were recovered.
\nThe bodies were spotted from binoculars and it will take some days to bring the bodies to the base camp, he added. Sadpara, a highly accomplished mountaineer from Skardu, went missing on the mighty K2 while attempting a winter summit with Iceland\u2019s John Snorri and Chile\u2019s Juan Pablo Mohr in January.
\nThe team had been missing since February 5, even after multiple rescue efforts. Pakistan Army held a rescue operation for the missing mountaineers for many days. Sadpara\u2019s son declared his father dead after the conclusion of days-long search mission.
\nMohammad Ali Sadpara holds the distinction of being the only Pakistani to have summited eight of the world\u2019s 14 highest mountains. He is also credited with the first-ever winter ascent of the world\u2019s ninth highest peak, Nanga Parbat.
\nSajid Sadpara also accompanied his father during the ascend, however, he had to return to the base camp after being sent back from 8200 kilometers altitude owing to a malfunction in his oxygen regulator.
\nSajid Sadpara had earlier claimed that his father and other climbers went missing on their return after they completed the summit. In June, Sajid Sadpara had announced to once again summit K-2 to find remains of his father Muhammad Ali Sadpara and Iceland\u2019s climber John Snorri, who went missing while attempting a winter summit.
\nSajid Sadpara had made the announcement at a presser at National Press Club in Islamabad, saying that his father and John Snorri went for the K-2 summit in January. \u201cI wanted to thank all those people who helped in a mission to locate them,\u201d he had said while applauding the Pakistan Army that launched one of the biggest rescue operations to find both the climbers.
\nHe had said that it was now time for him to reach the summit and find if they had left any traces for him to locate their bodies. \u201cIt may be possible that they had returned before climbing the peak,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
