The black box was salvaged on Tuesday morning, two days after a plane crashed in Nepal, killing 22 people, including four Indians, according to sources. The Tara Air plane crashed on Sunday morning, only minutes after taking off from Pokhara, a popular tourist destination.
On Monday, the country’s home ministry issued an update that shattered hopes that anyone would survive the accident.
“The body of the last victim has been discovered. Arrangements are being made to transport the remaining 12 bodies from the crash site to Kathmandu “Brigadier General Narayan Silwal, a spokesman for the Nepal Army, said on Tuesday morning.
The Twin Otter 9N-AET turboprop plane went lost in Nepal’s hilly area. The Canadian-built jet was carrying four Indians, two Germans, and 13 Nepali passengers, as well as a three-member Nepali crew, on its way from Pokhara to Jomsom, a major tourist resort in central Nepal.
