"Why her? What did she do?" asked an emotional father of 23-year-old woman lawyer who was among 11 people killed in a brazen attack on a local court in Pakistani capital here.
It was Fiza Malik's third day at work and she was in the Court room right next to the entrance from where the attackers stormed the premises.
She was probably one of the first to be killed by the unidentified attackers.
"What can I say? The people who did it are also children of some parents," Malik's father said holding back his tears.
Her mother said she first thought her daughter had been injured.
"It was only when we reached the hospital that I came to know she was dead," the mother said.
Malik had completed her law from the UK and had returned to practice in Pakistan.
Eleven people, including a Judge, were killed while 25 others were injured in a suicide attack on the local Court in Pakistan's federal capital.
