A boy views the body of 18 year-old student Abdul Mannan, before his burial, at a cemetery in Peshawar November 17, 2009. A suicide car-bomber killed four people on Monday near a Pakistan air force base close to the northwestern city of Peshawar and the Afghan border, a government official said. The city has been targeted several times since the army began an offensive against the Taliban in South Waziristan last month and militants stepped up retaliatory attacks. Mannan was one of the four people killed in the suicide bomb attack. REUTERS/Faisal Mahmood (PAKISTAN CONFLICT CRIME LAW OBITUARY)
