Mountaineers from the Indian army have rescued an injured trekker who was stranded without food and water for nearly 48 hours in the cleft of a steep hill in the southern Indian state of Kerala.
R Babu, 23, slipped and fell into the crevice on Monday while on a hike with three friends. Three different rescue teams had failed to reach him earlier.
