Indian-origin Singaporean man missing after reaching Mount Everest summit
Singapore, May 21 (PTI) An Indian-origin Singaporean climber has gone missing after reaching the summit of Mount Everest, his family has said and called for urgent attention to his situation.
According to a petition on the website change.org, Shrinivas Sainis Dattatraya set out from Singapore to Nepal last month to climb the world's highest peak.
His cousin Divya Bharath wrote in the petition that on the way down, Shrinivas seemed to have suffered frostbite and altitude sickness. This probably might have resulted in Dattatraya getting separated from the rest of his group, and "fell at around 8,000 metres, likely onto the Tibetan side of the mountain".
