Pakistan’s High Commissioner to Britain said on Tuesday that teenage Malala Yousufzai is being provided good medical treatment in UK by a team of doctors, hoping for her early recovery.
“Malala had a comfortable journey and is stable,” said Wajid Shamsul Hasan while speaking to reporters here.
The 14-year-old children rights activist shot in the head by the Taliban arrived at Britain’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham on Monday to receive specialized medical care.
The hospital has a major trauma centre specializing in treating severe gunshot wounds, major head injuries and road accident victims. It is also home to the Royal Centre for Defence Medicine, the primary receiving unit for military casualties returning from overseas, and has advanced equipment that would help Malala’s treatment, officials said.
