Father of Malala Yousafzai, a teenage Pakistani activist shot in the head by Taliban, was given a diplomatic post in the United Kingdom.
Malala has been recovering at a hospital in Birmingham, England, after she was shot in October in Swat Valley. The Taliban have vowed to target her again.
Pakistans High Commissioner to Britain, Wajid Shamsul Hasan, confirmed a report on Wednesday saying that Malalas father, Ziauddin, has been appointed Pakistans education attache in Birmingham.
The position, with an initial 3year commitment virtually guarantees Malalas stay in the U.K.
Malalas case won worldwide recognition for the struggle for womens rights in Pakistan. In a sign of her reach, the 15-year-old made the shortlist for Time magazines Person of the Year for 2012.
