Peshawar father describes the agonising wait for his son
Accounts are beginning to emerge from the school attack in Peshawar.
One account is one from a father who had an agonising wait outside the school for his son who was in the auditorium where most of the children died.
He told the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Pakistan correspondent Shaimaa Khalil: "I'm earning for my kids. If I don't have my kids, what is there?"
"There were many mothers, there were many fathers without shoes. They were crying."
My kid came outside and "his shirt had blood on it."
"I'm lucky ...Today I found my kids again."
