Leaders
of almost all the top political parties are attending a meeting
convened by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif Wednesday to discuss the
situation that emerged after the deadly attack at a school in Peshawar
where militants killed almost 141 people including 132 children.
PM Nawaz, who described the Peshawar school attack as a “national
tragedy unleashed by savages”, is chairing a meeting of political
parties in Peshawar to discuss a response to the tragedy, but the
crucial announcement came ahead of the moot.
Earlier today, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif Wednesday revoked the ban on capital punishment in terrorism cases following which the terrorists facing death penalty could be executed.
The government and military have reaffirmed their determination to defeat a group that has killed thousands since it began its insurgency in 2007.
