People usually go to tall hills or mountain tops when they die to be closer to their God.

They've worked out who he is!
"The mystery of the man found at Dovestone reservoir has finally been solved, an inquest has heard. The body was found at the Saddleworth beauty spot on December 12, 2015. But GMP have been unable to confirm the identity of the elderly man ... until now. Today, at a short hearing at Heywood coroner's court, he was identified as David Lytton, 68...."

Elderly! Is 68 elderly?
... Police had previously confirmed he had died of "strychnine poisoning", which is now used primarily as a pesticide, particularly to kill rats.
Maybe he didn't?Strychnine poisoning is an especially painful way to die. It strikes me as an odd choice for a suicide by anyone who knew this.
He may have been visiting relatives.One question has popped up - what was he doing, living in Pakistan?
Not many Brits living over there, for a variety of reasons.
Elderly is 80 and over - 68 is 'old'.
My Dad is 88 and still resolutely refuses the tag 'elderly'.
A court has heard he flew into London Heathrow from Lahore, Pakistan, two days before his body was found. He was identified from photos from a passenger list and picked up on CCTV in London.
