MUZAFFARABAD: In an unprecedented incident, a rescue and relief team of Shabab-e-Milli and Al-Khidmat pulled out a woman from under the debris of a collapsed building in Muzaffarabad, 63 days after the October 8 earthquake. BBC Urdu reported that 40-year-old Naqsha Bibi had been rescued on December 10, and local people looked after the woman for two days. She was handed over to a team of German doctors on Monday and was shifted to Pakistan Islamic Medical Association Hospital at Kamsar Relief Camp. Locals said that the woman’s parents and two brothers had died in the quake. Dr Hafiz at PIMA Hospital said that Naqsha Bibi was in ICU.

| #4 I think I've sat next to a woman named Bibi on Delta flight from Atlanta....? She could have gone for at least two months days without eating another bite, no problem! |

| #3 I do scent a bit of exageration here. I suspect that if it's not a miracle tale she was trapped in her house by rubble with a pretty well-stocked pantry and couldn't go out for 63 days. But that pantry had to be pretty full. |

| #2 If true, then this is amazing. PBM's comment rings true... I have to say that this story, as reported, doesn't ring true, however. Color me skeptical. |

| #1 But now the muzzies will probably figure that she's some sort of witch and stone her... |
