French climber rules out more bodies from Air India crash

Paris: The discovery of a diplomatic bag from an Air India plane that crashed in the French Alps 46 years ago does not spell hope that any more bodies will be found, a climber who has found debris and human remains from the doomed craft said on Tuesday.
Daniel Roche said the January 24, 1966, crash that killed 117 people including the pioneer of India’s nuclear programme Homi Jehangir Bhabha thereby fuelling conspiracy theories, was more likely an accident.
“I have recovered six to seven tonnes of debris, jewellery, documents and money since I began climbing Mont Blanc eight years ago on the French and Italian sides, said the 60-year-old property consultant based in Lyon.
“The human remains include skulls, pieces from the thigh and other body parts, teeth and hair,” he told AFP in a telephone interview.
