Authorities abandon recovery of German Olympian killed in Pakistan

Authorities have abandoned efforts to recover the body of German Olympic biathlete Laura Dahlmeier, who died in a mountaineering accident in Pakistan this week. Dahlmeier was confirmed dead on Wednesday, having been hit by falling rocks while climbing at an altitude of 5,700 metres (18,700 feet) on Laila Peak in the Karakoram range. Attempts to recover her body were abandoned due to "dangerous" conditions at the site, Dahlmeier's management agency said on Thursday. In consultation with the Alpine Club of Pakistan, the agency said her relatives would "continue to monitor the situation... and are keeping the option of arranging a rescue at a later date." Marina Eva (2R), mountaineering partner of German Olympic biathlon champion Laura Dahlmeier, looks on during a press conference in Skardu. AFP Several of Dahlmeier's colleages confirmed the two-time Olympic gold medallist had said she did not want her body recovered if it put any would-be rescuers at risk. German mountaineer Thomas Huber was part of a team who had attempted a rescue but told reporters on Thursday: "We have decided she should stay, because that was her wish." Another member of the rescue team, American Jackson Marvell told AFP it would be "disrespectful" to recover her body contrary to her wishes. Marvell said "the recovery of Laura's body will be possible, but it involves incredible risks, both on foot and by helicopter." Laura Dahlmeier celebrates during the medals ceremony at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea. File / AP Dahlmeier's climbing partner Marina Krauss, who was with her at the time of the incident, said at a press conference on Thursday the former Olympian did not move after being caught in a rockfall. "I saw Laura being hit by a huge rock and then being thrown against the wall. And from that moment on, she didn't move again," Krauss told reporters. Krauss said she was unable to reach Dahlmeier and called for outside support. "It was impossible for me to get there safely. "It was clear to me the only way to help her was to call a helicopter. She didn't move, she didn't show any signs (of movement). I called out to her, but there was no response." "She only had a chance if help arrived immediately," she said. Dahlmeier won seven world championship gold medals, and at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang she became the first woman biathlete to win both the sprint and the pursuit at the same Games. Dahlmeier retired from professional competition in 2019 at the age of 25. Agence France-Presse

German Olympic biathlete champion Dahlmeier confirmed dead after attempting Laila Peak in Pakistan

German double Olympic biathlon champion Laura Dahlmeier has died after a mountaineering accident in Pakistan, her management and local authorities confirmed on Wednesday. The accident occurred around noon on Monday, at an altitude of approximately 5,700 metres at Laila Peak, the Alpine Club of Pakistan said on Tuesday. Dahlmeier was climbing with her mountaineering partner when she was struck by a sudden rockfall in the Hushe Valley, part of the northern Gilgit-Baltistan region. Laura Dahlmeier competes in the women's 15km individual biathlon event at the Alpensia biathlon center during the Pyeongchang 2018 Winter Olympic Games. File / AFP Poor weather conditions prevented a rescue helicopter from reaching the site. Two teams of expert climbers from Germany and the United States deployed to search her confirmed that she had died, regional government spokesperson Faizullah Faraq said. "Laura Dahlmeier died on 28 July in a mountain accident on Laila Peak (6,069 metres) in Pakistan's Karakoram range," her management said in a statement. "A recovery operation was launched but ultimately called off on the evening of 29 July." Her representatives added that Dahlmeier most likely died instantly, while her mountaineering partner was unharmed. "It was Laura Dahlmeier's express and written will that in a case like this, no one should risk their life to recover her," they said. "It was her wish to leave her body behind on the mountain in this case. This is also in line with the wishes of her relatives." Laura Dahlmeier competes during the Women's 15-km individual race during the 2017 IBU Biathlon World Championships in Hochfilzen. AFP Faraq said the regional authorities would respect any decision by her family. The provincial government spokesperson also identified the climbing partner as Marina Eva Krauss. Krauss successfully descended to base camp and is reported to be in good health, he added. The 31-year-old Dahlmeier retired from biathlon in 2019, aged 25, a year after becoming the first female biathlete to achieve a sprint and pursuit double at the same Olympics. OLYMPIC TRIBUTE "Laura made history at the PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics as the first female biathlete to win sprint and pursuit gold at the same Games edition. She will be remembered forever," the President of the International Olympic Committee Kirsty Coventry said. The German Olympic Sports Confederation expressed deep sorrow at the news. "She was more than an Olympic champion - she was someone with heart, attitude and vision," it said in a statement on X. Dahlmeier, who was born in the Bavarian ski town of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, was also honoured by the premier of her home state, Markus Soeder, who said "she was ambitious and successful, yet always remained humble and close to her homeland." The International Biathlon Union also expressed its condolences."Laura's energy and passion for life touched so many around the world. Her legacy, both within biathlon and beyond, will never be forgotten and will continue to inspire countless athletes and adventurers for generations to come," it said. Reuters
