Abstract
In contemporary times loss of skilled health care staff by suicide-terrorism is a matter of grave concern. The prime example of this tragedy is death of Surgeon General Pakistan, General Mukhtar Ahmed Baig, in an incidence of Suicide Bombing. No place is immune from such incidences; acts of suicide bombing have been carried out in hospitals, private clinics and places of worships. According to most widely accepted definition, suicide attacks are an operational method in which the very act of attack is dependent on the death of the perpetrator.
