Was Pakistan school massacre in revenge for Malala's Nobel Prize? Children forced to watch their teacher being burned alive as Taliban murder 132 children

Taliban terrorists attacked the Army Public School in Peshawar, slaughtering 132 children and injuring 122 more. Harrowing eyewitness accounts revealed how students were forced to watch as bodies were burned beyond recognition. Others were forced to play dead as the insurgent scoured classrooms for more children to kill. After the attack, the corridors of the city's Combined Military Hospital were filled with coffins (top right) as medics battled to saved the young pupils. But, as night fell, scores of funerals and vigils were being held by grief-stricken relatives (left). One expert has claimed the horrific events could have been in retaliation to 17-year-old Malala Yousafzai (bottom right) winning this year's Nobel Peace Prize.
