Malala Yousafzai attack: Ten suspects arrested

Ten people suspected of planning and carrying out the attack on the Pakistani schoolgirl Malala Yousafzai have been arrested.

An army spokesman said the attack weapon had also been recovered. He said the group had been working under the instructions of Mullah Fazlullah, the chief of the Pakistani Taliban.

Malala was shot three times at point blank range two years ago.
