Pakistani students recreate photo taken before Peshawar school massacre

In atrocities like the massacre at a school in Peshawar last month, the individual victims can sometimes be forgotten; replaced in headlines by a number – in this case the 145 murdered by the Taliban.

After returning to school this week, two of the pupils – Talha Munir Paracha (far left) and Hassan Javed Khan (second right) – have given a heart-wrenching reminder that everyone at that school has lost a friend, a classmate or a teacher.

Uploading two pictures to his Facebook page, Talha showed one from before the attack and one after.

In the second photo, two of his friends – Rafiq Bangash (second left) and Mohammad Yassen (far right) – were missing, tragically having lost their lives in the attack.
