On January 20, 2016, around four terrorists entered Bacha Khan University in Charsadda district, roughly 50 kilometres (30 miles) from the city of Peshawar and killed 21 people and injured dozens.
Moreover, some wounds have still not healed as Samiullah, former student and the only person to survive from his room is still under treatment at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
His injuries were so severe that even after a year of the attack, he was victim to constant headaches and could not speak for more than two minutes without getting tired.
A vigil was held for the martyrs while prayers were also held for them two days ago. Students and families remembered the victims and the unfortunate day that many lives were permanently altered.
