Paris ആ That Indian-made metal box filled with rubies, emeralds and sapphires may have been the lifeblood of some of the unfortunate passengers on a plane that crashed in the Mobla Mountains of Europe. But now, half of that collection belongs to the honest French climber who discovered it.
The gem collection, valued at $ 3.4 million (Rs 2.56 crore), which could not be traced to the real heirs, will be distributed to the finder and the landowner’s government.
Air India’s Boeing 707 Kanchenjunga, which crashed in 1966, was carrying Indian nuclear architect Homi Bhabha. The mountaineer got the gems in 2013, which had been covered in snow for half a century. Knowing that there had been two plane crashes there, he came down the hill and handed over the box to the police.
