man who tried to climb Everest has been arrested in Kathmandu
Nepalese friend of Ryan Sean Davy said the climber was being questioned by tourism officials and is due to appear in court on Wednesday where he is expected to receive a heavy fine.
"He is in good heart although worried about his finances and the scale of the punishment he will receive because has no cash, which is why he mostly travelled on foot."
Mr Davy, US-based South African, 43, he said he climbed alone to a height of 7,300m (24,000ft) before he was found hiding in a cave by the officials who also confiscated his passport because he did not have a permit to climb Everest.
He has apologised but also he complained of being treated harshly by the officials. It is extremely rare for someone to attempt climbing Everest by themselves.
he said "I have no idea of the outcome regarding my Everest no-permit climb," Mr Davy posted on Facebook on Tuesday
