The family of Mohammad Yasin Khaksar, a 25-year-old Afghan man, confirmed his identity among the eight bodies found near the Iran-Turkey border in Van province.
Mohammad Zamir, Yasin's father, told The Afghan International on Wednesday that he recognized his son in a released video of the bodies.
According to him, Yasin tried to enter Turkey from Iran to escape unemployment and poverty, but he died on the way.
Yassin's father said that he does not currently know where his son's body is kept and asked the Taliban authorities to cooperate in finding and transporting his body.
Mohammad Zamir, who lives in Tathka Kobarak area of Takhar district and has no internet access, asked his relatives and neighbors to contact Afghanistan International to identify and find his son's body.
Afghanistan International has seen documents that show that Muhammad Yasin Khaxar, son of Muhammad Zamir, was born in the month of Tur 1,380 and is one of the main residents of Argui District in Badakhshan. His family currently lives in Takher.
Earlier, the family of Reza Nazri, a 16-year-old Afghan boy from Bamiyan district, also confirmed his identity among the eight bodies.
