180 bodies retrieved from historic tower
Nepal's 19th-century nine-storey Dharahara tower in the heart of the capital on Saturday became a burial ground for hundreds of visitors who had come to see the panoramic views of the Kathmandu valley from the top of the minaret. The 50.5-metre-high historic tower was reduced to just its base after the powerful earthquake struck Nepal on flattening the minaret and trapping hundreds of visitors under its debris.
