Rs 1 crore for info on Malala's attackers by chocolate.boy 2012/10/17 13:56
Pakistani authorities on Tuesday announced a reward of Rs 1 crore for information leading to the capture of the militants who attempted to kill teenaged rights activist Malala Yousufzai, who was shot and seriously injured in the former Taliban [ Images ] stronghold of Swat.
The Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa government will give a reward of Rs 1 crore to anyone who helps identify the persons who attacked Malala on Tuesday, provincial Information Minister Mian Iftikhar Hussain told a news conference in Peshawar.
The name of any person who provides such information will be kept secret, Hussain said.
"The blood of Malala and the sympathy extended to her by people from around the world is a slap on the face of terrorism," he said.
Federal Interior Minister Rehman Malik told reporters after visiting Malala in a military hospital in Peshawar that authorities had identified the attackers who shot the 14-year-old schoolgirl and they would be brought to justice. He did not give any details about the attackers but claimed they had come from the Afghan province of Kunar to Swat to target Malala.
In a related development, police and security agencies detained over 200 people, including a security guard and a driver of Malala's school, in connection with the attack, officials told the media.
Authorities also registered a case under the Anti-Terrorism Act.
The banned Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan claimed responsibility for the attempted assassination, saying Malala was targeted for espousing "pro-West" views and backing a "secular government" in Swat, which was a stronghold of the militants till early 2009.
