Where should one start from? May 22 marks the first anniversary of the ill-fated Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight PK8303 crash that extinguished 97 lives as it went down.
A year on, on Saturday, the loved ones of the victims gathered in Karachi’s Model Colony, the neighbourhood where the plane had crashed. This is nearly how one must start this story. It would be unfair to choose the tale of one family over the others as the opening.
The grief of each of the families was heartbreaking, their sorrow manifest on their faces. One year down the line, they wanted to be heard and consoled like never before.
