Available for over a year

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 BBC'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." First broadcast Today programme 18 December 2014.
