They were killed on the spot.The incident occurred when the world celebrated the 20th anniversary of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines.

About Me:: Zafar Iqbal is a freelance journalist, human rights activist and media educator. He holds MA (Media & Globalization) from Nottingham Trent University, UK. He has many other academic distinctions from some of the renowned centres of excellence in Europe and Pakistan. He is also a Chevening Scholar.
After earning his first Masters degree in mass communication from Pakistan, he started his career as a journalist from Muzffarabad, the capital of the Pakistani part of the divided state of Kashmir.
For years, Zafar has been highlighting the miseries of marginalized and voiceless elements of the society in his country. Promoting peace and supporting various issues including press freedom, globalization, interfaith harmony and environmental issues have been the major areas of his contributions while working for a number of national and international dailies and media organisations.
As a journalist, he is specifically interested in peace and security with special perspective on South Asia.
Press for Peace (PFP), a non-governmental humanitarian organisation is the brainchild of Zafar Iqbal.

My aim is also to find a way to achieve a world where war is impossible (see my blog: http://bit.ly/bGgbmH). I have written a book 'world without war: made possible by empowered individuals' )http://amzn.to/aSZhi1) which will shortly be available on Kindle. It deals with religious and sectarian communication to enable negotiation for true consensus by removing otherwise irreconcilable verses in doctrines. It finds that negotiation must be an an equal footing, where power-play is not allowed. This has for instance been achieved in Ache, Ireland, Zimbabwe (as a first step), and most impressively in Europe, where the EU was started by two people, Robert Schumann, and Adenauer, who wanted to stop the continual wars between European nations. I see you as a potential ally in this effort.
