Local authorities in Pakistan have issued a $10,000 reward for the capture of a Taliban gunman who shot a schoolgirl campaigner in the head as she left school in the turbulent Swat Valley.Fourteen-year-old Malala Yousafzai was just about to leave school in the town of Mingora when a gunman walked up to her school bus and shot her.
Two other schoolgirls were injured in the attack, which left Malala, an outspoken critic of the Taliban, fighting for her life in intensive care in a Peshawar military hospital.
Doctors have now removed the bullet, which had lodged in her shoulder.
Her uncle Saeed Ramzan said doctors told the family Malala was stable after the three-hour operation.
"But they said the next 48 hours are important and after that it will be decided whether she will be sent abroad or not," he said at the family home in Mingora, which is under heavy police guard.
"We saw movement in her body today but she is still unconscious."
Preparations were made to fly her abroad, but a military source said she was currently too ill to travel.
The Taliban has claimed responsibility for the attack, saying Malala was a "Western-minded girl".
"She always speaks against us. We will target anyone who speaks against the Taliban," a spokesman for the militant group said.
"We warned her several times to stop speaking against the Taliban and to stop supporting Western (non-government organisations) and to come to the path of Islam."
