Soviet Soldier MIA since 1980 and was found recently

In 1980 there was a Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Many people were killed in this long war, but there were also many that went missing. Bakhredtin Khakimov was one of soldiers that went missing, after he received a wound to the head, some local Afghan tribesman healed him. Currently he uses the name Sheikh Abdullah that was most likely given to him by the tribes people. He had a wife and a child, but they both passed. He now lives a semi-nomadic life. A Russian non-profit organization found him, but he will continue his life with the Afghan tribes people, after a he meets his long lost relatives.
