UNITED KINGDOM:
Malala Yousufzai met with her friend Shazia Rehman after she flew to the United Kingdom on Monday.

She also met with former UK prime minister Gordon Brown during her visit.

Shazia was injured along with Malala when they were attacked by militants last year, as their school van travelled through Swat Valley on October 9.


The attack drew worldwide condemnation.

Malala was flown to Britain for surgery on her head injuries and joined school in Birmingham, central England, in March.

Malala has become a global symbol of the campaign for the right of girls to an education and has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
