Malala Yousafzai and other activists

Women’s rights activists in Lahore

protest against the killing of Noor Mukadam,

the 27-year-old daughter of a former Pakistani diplomat.

Mukadam was found beheaded at home in Islamabad,

and her boyfriend, Zahir Jaffer,

has been arrested on suspicion of murder.

The case has renewed attention on the country’s

poor record of addressing violence against women.

HE NAMED ME MALALA

is an intimate portrait

of Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai,

who was targeted by the Taliban

and severely wounded by a gunshot

when returning home on her school bus

in Pakistan’s Swat Valley.

The then 15-year-old (she turns 18 this July)

was singled out, along with her father,

for advocating for girls’ education, and the attack on her

sparked an outcry from supporters around the world.

She miraculously survived

and is now a leading campaigner

for girls’ education globally

as co-founder of the Malala Fund.

“honour code” / “honour” killings

The tribal areas in North and South Waziristan,

which borders Afghanistan,

are known for the strict “honour code”

imposed on women,

whose movements are heavily restricted

and who are often not allowed out of the house

unaccompanied.

Malala Yousafzai

is a (...) Pakistani schoolgirl

who was shot in the head

by the Taliban in October 2012

in retaliation for her work in promoting

girls’ education and children’s rights

in the northwestern Swat Valley,

near the Afghan border.

Ms. Yousafzai

was shot by a gunman

who had singled her out

as she returned home

from school in Mingora,

the main town in the valley.

Initially, she was treated

at a military hospital in Peshawar,

where surgeons removed a bullet

that had passed through her head

and lodged in her shoulder.

Two days later,

she was airlifted

to an army hospital

in Rawalpindi,

near the headquarters

of the Pakistani Army.

The Taliban's attempt

to kill a 14-year-old girl,

famous for speaking out

against the Islamic militants

and their attacks

on girls' education,

has triggered a wave

of national revulsion

in Pakistan.
