Mountaineer Murad Sadpara, who met with an accident on Gilgit-Baltistan’s Broad Peak a day ago, passed away on Monday.
As per PTV News, Sadpara got “severely injured after being hit by a rock on his head at Camp 1” and later succumbed to his injuries.
His body was recovered by the locals along with the support of the Pakistan Army. The Pakistan Army had deployed four expert mountaineers to the base camp to assist in the rescue efforts.
Sadpara had left for Broad Peak with a Portuguese woman climber last week and the team was returning when a stone struck his head near Camp 1 during bad weather conditions.
Sadpara was known for his mountaineering achievements, including the successful summiting of Nanga Parbat twice.
