Officials supporting Everest climbers to be strapped with GPS device this spring [The Kathmandu Post, Nepal / Asia News Network]
Feb. 4 Last week an investigation committee of the Tourism Ministry recommended revoking the Everest climbing certificates of two Indian nationals who produced fake documents to say that they had climbed Mt Everest [8,848.86 metres] in May 2016, and imposing a 10-year mountaineering ban on the duo.
The fact-finding government committee had, after six months of investigation, concluded that the photographs submitted by Indian nationals Narender Singh Yadav and Seema Rani Goswami showing that they had reached the top of the world’s highest mountain were fake, said Taranath Adhikari, the spokesperson for the ministry.
