The 34-year-old Indian who went missing on Monday while attempting to climb Mount Annapurna in Nepal has been rescued but is in critical condition, expedition organisers said on Thursday.
The mountaineer Anurag Maloo had gone missing since the afternoon of April 17 after falling into a deep crevasse on Annapurna, which is the 10th highest mountain in the world. “Maloo is currently at Manipal Hospital under doctors’ supervision,” Mingma Sherpa from Seven Summit Treks told ANI over phone from Kathmandu.
“He has been taken to the hospital in critical condition, but he is still alive,” Sudhir, his brother said.
A search operation to locate Maloo, a resident of Kishangargh in Rajasthan’s Ajmer district was underway since Monday. “Search operation is on. He fell into a crevasse while returning from Camp IV this afternoon,” Mingma Sherpa, the Chairman of Seven Summit Treks had told.
Maloo was descending from Camp III when he fell into a crevase at around 6,000 metres and went missing, the expedition organiser said.
