PESHAWAR: on Wednesday, A shocked Pakistan began burying 132 students killed in a grisly attack on their school by Taliban militants that has heaped pressure on the government to do more to tackle the insurgency.
People across the pakistan lit candles and staged vigils as parents bade final farewells to their children during mass funerals in and around Peshawar, the volatile city on the edge of Pakistan's lawless tribal belt where the school was located.
Grief mixed with anger as people looked to the authorities - long accused of not being tough enough on extremists - to stem intense violence in a nation which has become a safe haven for al Qaeda-linked groups.
