Peshawar: A schoolboy uploaded heartbreaking pictures on Facebook of his friends as a mark of tribute, after the deadly Peshawar attack which claimed lives of 150 people, including 134 children, who were butchered by Taliban militants.

In one picture, Talha is seen with three of his school friends, standing on a playing field in their green school uniform. In the other image, which is taken in the same location, two boys are spotted, while empty spaces exist where his friends should have been.

Across the country, schools had remained shut for an extended winter break as authorities strengthened security and announced new measures including the death penalty to combat insurgents.
