Remains of Two Men Missing 28 Years Found in Pakistan, Wales

The remains of several men who had been missing for nearly 28 years have recently been discovered, shedding light on long-unsolved disappearances. In Pakistan-administered Gilgit-Baltistan, the body of Naseeruddin, who vanished during a snowstorm in 1997, was found remarkably well-preserved in a melting glacier, a consequence of accelerated glacial melt linked to climate change. Meanwhile, in Swansea, Wales, the remains of David Emrys Gear, who disappeared from a care home in 1997, were found near the nursing home and confirmed through DNA testing, though the cause of death remains undetermined and investigations continue. In the United States, Nicholas Anderson, a 24-year-old missing since earlier in 2025 following a meeting arranged through a dating app, was found deceased near Jacksonville, Florida; authorities are still investigating the circumstances of his death and seeking public assistance for information. These discoveries highlight challenges in resolving cold cases and the potential impact of environmental changes on uncovering long-lost remains.
