TASHKENT, Uzbekistan -- Smiling and waving a V-sign in family photos, Dilnoza Khalmuradova appears the very image of prosperity propagated in posters across the Uzbek capital: an energetic child rushing between activities, learning English and studying to be a police officer.
That was before her transformation.
Beginning a couple of years ago, she became a zealous Muslim, her parents said. She studied Arabic so she could read the Koran and always wore a veil. The transformation was complete on March 29 when, police say, she blew herself up at a Tashkent bazaar in Uzbekistan's first-ever suicide attack.
