The remains of 31-year-old Nasiruddin were found near the edge of the Lady Meadows glacier in the Kohistan region of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
Nasiruddin had disappeared in 1997 after he and his brother fled into the mountains following a village dispute.
“Our family left no stone unturned to trace him over the years,” said Malik Ubaid, Nasiruddin’s nephew.
“Our uncles and cousins visited the glacier several times to see if his body could be retrieved, but they eventually gave up as it wasn’t possible,” he said.
His identity card was found intact on his body, helping to confirm who he was.
“Finally, we have got some relief after the recovery of his dead body,” Ubaid said.
Pakistan holds over 13,000 glaciers, the largest concentration of glacial ice outside the polar regions.
However, global warming linked to human-caused climate change has accelerated glacial melt across the region. – AFP
