Shahbaz Bhatti to get into politics, however, he filled a 
vacuum that was desperately needed for his people. 

 Women and men spoke of the tragic loss of a great humanitarian. 

 Young and old 
celebrated the life of a true hero.

Shahbaz Bhatti in memory of a martyr for the faith.

preparation of the event. 

 The Deputy High Commissioner 
spoke of his relationship with 
Shahbaz Bhatti.
