Voice 9, Kathmandu, Nepal: On Tuesday (July 11), all six passengers on board a chopper were killed when it crashed near Mount Everest in Nepal. According to the police, five of the dead were Mexican vacationers, and the pilot was Nepalese. The helicopter crashed in the Lamajura region, and all of the dead were retrieved, according to Basanta Bhattarai, the area's main government administrator. According to the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal, the five visitors were Mexican nationals, and the pilot was Nepalese. There were two males and three females among the Mexicans.
Mexico's ambassador to India, Federico Salas,
informed me that the five Mexican fatalities were all members of the same
family. Dr. Abril Sifuentes, a resident in internal medicine at Mexico's
National Cancer Institute, was among those slain, according to the National
Cancer Institute on Twitter. Sifuentes had uploaded an Instagram photo of
herself standing in front of India's Taj Mahal a week before.
The bodies were transported from the crash site
to Kathmandu using two rescue helicopters. According to information, a
post-mortem will be conducted before the bodies are handed over to relatives or
embassy officials.
It should be noted that the tragedy occurred on
Tuesday morning as the helicopter was returning to Kathmandu after taking
passengers on a sightseeing excursion to the world's highest mountain.
According to airport official Sagar Kadel, the reason for the crash has yet to
be determined. He also stated that the scheduled flight route of the ill-fated
helicopter had been modified due to weather circumstances.
