ISLAMABAD: v Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai today returned to UK after a four-day surprise visit to Pakistan during which she also travelled to her hometown Swat.
The 20-year-old girl departed to Doha along with her family on a private flight.
On early Thursday morning, Malala returned to Pakistan in her first visit since she was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman six years ago for advocating education for girls. During the visit, she met PM and visited her hometown Swat. She also launched campaign for Malala Fund working for the education of girls in Pakistan and other countries.
She also met with friends and family before visiting the all-boys Swat Cadet College Guli Bagh, some 15 kilometres (nine miles) outside of Mingora, the district’s main town.
Mingora is where Malala’s family was living and where she was attending school on October 9, 2012, when a gunman boarded her school bus, asked “Who is Malala?”, and shot her.
