The ATR-42 aircraft had taken off from Chitral at 3:30pm and was to land at Islamabad's Benazir Bhutto International Airport around 280km away at 4:40pm. It crashed in Saddha Batolni village near the Pakistan Ordinance Factory, Havelian, in Abbottabad shortly after the pilot sent a distress signal to the ATC. "A distress call was sent to the control tower... then the crash was reported," Daniyal Gilani, PIA spokesperson, said, adding that the plane, nearly 10 years old, was in good condition. Sultan, an eyewitness, told news channels that all bodies were burnt beyond recognition. (AFP)

"We've not recovered any body intact. There are just burnt limbs and torsos scattered all around," he said. The rough terrain without any road access, nightfall, and cold weather hampered rescue operations and ambulances were unable to reach the site. (AFP)

Kashif, a rescue team member, told state-run PTV that rescuers doused the fire by putting sand on the branches and area surrounding the crash site. "The debris could have been scattered about 100 metres out. (AFP)

The plane fell into a canal behind the mountains so the debris wasn't very scattered," Kashif said. "Junaid Jamshed's visiting and ID cards were recovered by a member of the rescue team," Kashif said. (AFP)
