Pakistani celebs pray for safe return of missing mountaineers

LAHORE (Dunya News) - Pakistani famous celebrities have expressed their hope for the safe return of the mountaineer Ali Sadpura and his companions who went missing during their K2 climb.

Actress Mansha Pasha has taken to social-networking website Twitter and posted, “Ali Sadpara may not return. But we can honor his memory by supporting, highlighting the achievements of all athletes in Pakistan, not just cricketers.”

“Let us not wait for them to leave us to realize their worth. Still praying for a miracle. May he return safely,” she added.

Meanwhile, Sitara-e-Imriaz winner Mehwish Hayat said, “Tonight our thoughts are with the intrepid climbers, Muhammed Ali Sadpara, John Snorri from Iceland and MP Mohr from Chile who remain missing on K2. Let’s all pray for the safe return of these brave men.”

Actress Armeena said, "The Pakistani porter is paid 700 rupees per “stage” (there are at least 10). He has up to 45 kgs on his back, wearing inadequate clothing, broken sandals/no socks on rock and ICE. If there is something you are going to watch tonight.”
