Muslim clerics in India term Taliban assault on Pakistani school as inhuman

Bhopal/ New Delhi, Dec 17 (ANI): Muslim clerics in India denounced Taliban attack in a high school in Peshawar city and said it was time that Pakistan took action against militancy. At least 132 students and nine staff members were killed on Tuesday after Taliban gunmen broke into a school in the Pakistani city of Peshawar and opened fire, witnesses said, in the bloodiest massacre the country has seen for years. More than eight hours after militants slipped into the heavily guarded compound through a back entrance, the army declared the operation to flush them out over, and said that all nine insurgents had been killed. The attack on a military-run high school attended by more than 1,100 people, many of them children of army personnel, struck at the heart of Pakistan's military establishment, an assault certain to enrage the country's powerful army.
