Pakistan's Iconic Climber Ali Sadpara's Body Found On K2

The body of Pakistan’s iconic climber Muhammad Ali Sadpara has been reportedly found below infamous Bottleneck feature on K2 on Monday.

It is noteworthy here that Sadpara was lost on K2 along with two foreign climbers and the search for the climbers was officially called off on February 18.

According to the details, Sherpas may have found the body of legendry Muhammad Ali Sadpara after two bodies were reportedly found just below the infamous Bottleneck feature of K2. Reports from Camp 4 suggest that two bodies have been found by climbers near Bottleneck.

Earlier in the month of February, Ali Sadpara was last seen near Bottleneck with two foreigners by Sajid Sadpara, who was also part of the expedition but had to give up after his oxygen tank malfunctioned. Sajid is confident the trio had scaled K2 and might have met an accident while descending.

On Feb 18, Gilgit-Baltistan Tourism Minister Raja Nasir Ali Khan had declared missing mountaineers Ali Sadpara and his companions John Snorri from Iceland and Juan Pablo Mohr from Chile as dead.

“Keeping in mind the weather conditions at K2, Pakistan Army, government and family of the mountaineer had reached the conclusion that Ali Sadpara and his comrades had died,” he said during press conference.

Nasir Ali Khan said, “Government pays tribute to the services of national hero Ali Sadpara, and he will be given civil award along with his son Sajid Sadpara. A mountaineering school will be established in the name of Ali Sadpara.

“The federal government has been recommended to attribute Skardu Airport to Ali Sadpara. The mountaineer’s children will be given educational scholarships and his family will be provided financial and moral assistance. A law will be made for the families of the victim climbers.”

Sajid Sadpara, who was along with his father in his quest to summit K2 without oxygen and had to return after his health deteriorated midway, said, “Ali Sadpara met an accident after summiting K2 and is now resting in the mountain forever. All resources were utilized in the search and rescue operation.

“My family has lost a beloved father, the Pakistani nation has lost a patriot and national hero and the world has lost a skilled mountaineer. I will continue my father’s mission and fulfill his dreams.”
