Two policemen with AK-47 rifles stood guard in the narrow ally outside of Malala Yousafzai’s uncle’s house in Pakistan this weekend, watching for anything suspicious after she became the first teenager to win a Nobel Peace Prize.
Yousafzai, 17, celebrated the award some 5,000 miles (8,000 kilometers) away in the U.K., where she’s lived since Taliban militants shot her in the face on the way to school two years ago. She plans to stay away from Pakistan for at least another three years, according to Mahmudul Hassan, her uncle.
