Defying Age: World’s Oldest Father Celebrates Life with Birth of First Son at 141-khanh

“Feroz-un-Din Mir, hailing from Bihjama village in Kashmir’s Uri district, asserts to be the world’s oldest living person. Backed by a government certificate confirming his birth on March 10, 1872, Mir claims a remarkable age of 141 years. If validated, this would surpass the current record held by Misao Okawa, a 115-year-old, by a remarkable 26 years.”

If Mir’s claims are found to be true, then he will also become the oldest person to have ever lived by overtaking Frenchwoman Jeanne Calment, who died in 1997 at the age of 122.

But the family are bereft since their son disappeared.

Mr Ragav said: ‘We’ve been searching for him every day. I feel helpless. He is our first son. We love him dearly. I don’t know why or how he has disappeared.’
