Vigil held in Atlanta for victims of school attack in Pakistan

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: A month ago, Pakistan witnessed the deadliest terrorist attack in its territory in recent years when a group of militants linked with the outlawed Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) stormed an army-run school in northwestern Peshawar city on December 16.

   

The brutal attack, carried out by nine foreign militants including one Chechen, three Arabs and two Afghans and which left 150 persons mostly school children ranging between 8 and 18 years of age dead, sparked strong worldwide condemnation and outrage.
