The charity that one of the British hikers missing in northern Italy worked for has said it is “aware of reports the body of Sam Harris has been recovered”.<\/p>\n

The Crystal Palace Football Club charity, Palace for Life, said it was “devastated to receive this news” and its “thoughts and deepest sympathies go out to his loved ones”.<\/p>\n

They said no further information was available on the whereabouts of his friend Aziz Ziriat.<\/p>\n

Mr Harris, 35, was hiking in the Dolomites with Mr Ziriat, 36, but the pair had not been heard from<\/a><\/strong> since 1 January.<\/p>\n

Both of the men, who are from London, did not check in for their flight home on Monday.<\/p>\n

Their last known location was near a mountain hut called Casina Dosson, close to the town of Tione Di Trento, near Riva Del Garda, on Lake Garda.<\/p>\n

Italy’s CNSAS (The National Alpine Cliff And Cave Rescue Corps) said ground teams found Mr Harris’s body “beneath the snow, at the base of a rock face, at the foot of the southern wall of Care Alto”.<\/p>\n

It added that while the investigation into his death is ongoing, “it is possible that the climber fell from above”.<\/p>\n

Searches for Mr Ziriat were suspended this afternoon due to worsening weather conditions, the organisation said.<\/p>\n
