Ghazipur District Magistrate Aryaka Akhauri said family members of the plane crash victims, including Sonu Jaiswal, Anil Rajbhar, Vishal Sharma and Abhishek Kushwaha, had reached Kathmandu late on Tuesday evening.

As the bodies had not reached Kathmandu from Pokhara till late in the afternoon, the officials expected that the process of body identification, including DNA matching, would be possible on Wednesday.
