The body of a man missing for 28 years has been found in a melting glacier in Pakistan's remote and mountainous Kohistan region.
A shepherd stumbled upon the body, which was remarkably well-preserved, with its clothing intact, in the so-called Lady Valley in the country's east...
"What I saw was unbelievable," the shepherd who found the body, Omar Khan, told BBC Urdu. "The body was intact. The clothes were not even torn."
As soon as police confirmed that it was Naseeruddin, locals began offering more information, Mr Khan added.
Naseeruddin had a wife and two children. He was travelling with his brother, Kathiruddin, on horseback on the day he went missing. Police said a family feud had forced the two men to leave their home.
Kathiruddin told BBC Urdu that they had arrived in the valley that morning, and sometime around afternoon, his brother stepped into a cave. When he did not return, Kathiruddin says he looked for him inside the cave - and went and got help from others in the area to search further. But they never found him.
When a human body falls into a glacier, the extreme cold freezes it fast, preventing decomposition, said Prof Muhammad Bilal, head of the Department of Environment at Comsats University Islamabad.
The body is then mummified due to a lack of moisture and oxygen in the glacier.

Hey, how do we know that isn’t true? š¤
At least he wasn’t found in the Coldspot in the garage. They’d have some explaining to do.
Well I did enjoy Weekend At Bernie’s.
This guy may nod to agree he wants some benefits.
“Body of man missing for 28 years found in melting glacier”
But was he ALIVE? /s
"Family feud."
My bet is when news of the body came out, Kathiruddin first soiled himself, then had to make sure he had his story straight.
Regards,
Yeah, Kathirudden probably pushed his brother into the crevasse, and then came up with the cave story.
BTW, and sort of reminiscent, is “Ice” by Celestial Navigations. It’s one of the best pieces of storytelling to a (subdued) musical background that I’ve ever heard.

Cartman wound up frozen for 500 years when he was trying for only three weeks, so he didn’t have to wait for the Nintendo Wii to be released.

Prospector Luke Carpenter was frozen in suspended animation in the year 1900 while panning for gold in Alaska. He was successfully thawed and returned home perfectly preserved at 33 years of age and a dead ringer for his 33-year-old grandson Ken. Luke moves in with his 67-year-old son Edwin and tries to adjust to normal life while keeping his exact identity a secret.
The show premiered on ABC on Wednesday night at 8:30 EST. Its main competition was The Beverly Hillbillies (1962), which at the time was one of the most popular shows on television. When ABC canceled Batman (1966), they moved the show to its time slot on Thursday at 7:30, but it wasn’t enough to save the show.
Al Gore?
Gotta keep pushing the agenda.
” and I would have gotten away with it, if it wasn’t for that pesky climate change!”
John Wayne’s not dead, he’s frozen
And as soon as we find a cure for cancer
We’re gonna thaw out the Duke and he’s gonna be pretty pissed off
You know why
Have you ever taken a cold shower?
Well multiply that by 15 million times
That’s how pissed off the Duke’s gonna be!

We can hope.
Speaking of W@B’s, did you see the topic about the dead grandma the family claimed was just tired when they rolled her into the airliner?
Y’know, maybe they’d found her in a nearby glacier...
That was a favorite of mine when I was a kid. Didn’t last though. As a disclaimer, I also enjoyed “My Mother the Car”.

Maybe he was pushed, in which case, perfect crime.
