The stench of death still hangs in a pestilential cloud over Muzaffarabad, the largest Kashmiri city on the Pakistani side. Thousands died in the city, many of them in hospitals and schools destroyed by the 7.6 magnitude quake-on Wednesday, aid officials revised the final death toll upwards in Pakistan from 54,000 to nearly 80,000.
