Friends of 55-year-old Serbian Dragan Glisic, found dead in Pirin, did not know he was coming to Bulgaria. The man was found on Monday, a few meters from the deceased inhabitant of the capital Plamen Hristov under Mount Vihren, in the Vlahina Dolina area. Hours later, the Serb’s body was identified.
“Today we received the terrible and sad news that our member and trekking competitor Dragan Glisic died on the Pirin peaks, probably trying to help one of the Bulgarian mountaineers who died in the same place. Glory to him!”, they wrote his friends from the mountain club “Lukten” on social networks.
Glisic was born on May 16, 1967 in Trastenik. His mother lives in Vienna, which is why she probably drives a car with Austrian registration plates.
His friends knew that he would go to Mount Shar and from there return to Trastenik. Nobody knew that he intended to come to Bulgaria. “He was an exceptional person, great. That’s why we are sure that when he saw the body of the Bulgarian tourist, he went to help him, thinking that he was alive and that he probably died like this”, commented his friends to the Serbian “Courier”.
