SWAT: Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) have claimed responsibility of an attack on Malala Yousafzai, the National Peace Prize Winner.
TTP spokesman, Ehsanullah Ehsan said his group was behind the shooting.
"We carried out this attack," spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan told AFP, speaking by telephone from an undisclosed location. "Anybody who speaks against us will be attacked in the same way."
"She was pro-West, she was speaking against Taliban and she was calling President Obama her idol," Ehsan said by telephone from an undisclosed location.
"She was young but she was promoting Western culture in Pashtun areas," he said.
