Friends and colleagues of Pakistani officer Kamran Faisal light candles outside his residence in Islamabad, Pakistan, on Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2013. Officer Faisal was investigating a corruption case against the prime minister and was found dead in what police are calling a likely act of suicide. Faisal's death came days after the Supreme Court ordered the arrest of Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf and 15 others in connection with an old corruption case that the officer was investigating. Writing on Faisal's poster reads "who is my killer."
