'Children were forced to watch as their teacher was burned alive': Survivors reveal horror inside Pakistan school as Taliban gunmen bomb and shoot dead 132 children in revenge for military attacks
A teacher is believed to have been burned alive while her pupils were forced to watch as Taliban gunmen stormed a school in Pakistan and slaughtered 132 children killed. Nine Taliban terrorists attacked the military school in the north-western Pakistani city of Peshawar today in the deadliest terrorist attack in the nation's history. A source told NBC: 'They burnt a teacher in front of the students in a classroom. They literally set the teacher on fire with gasoline and made the kids watch.' The victim was said to be the wife of army soldier Subedar Mazhar, who also lost a son in the atrocity. Two bodies burned beyond recognition were taken to the Combined Military Hospital in Peshawar, MailOnline has been told. The victims may have been burned as a result of the suicide blast. The main picture shows the uncle and cousin of injured student Mohammad Baqair, who are comforting him as he mourns the death of his mother, who was a teacher at the school.
