Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai has returned to Pakistan for the first time since being shot by Taliban militants.<\/p>\n

Ms Yousafzai, now aged 20 and a vocal human rights activist, was shot in the head by a gunman for campaigning for female education in 2012.<\/p>\n

In an emotional speech at the prime minister’s office, she said it had been her dream to return “without any fear”.<\/p>\n

Details of the surprise trip are being kept secret for security reasons.<\/p>\n

Pakistani television broadcast video showing her arriving with her parents at Islamabad’s Benazir Bhutto International Airport under tight security.<\/p>\n

“Always it has been my dream that I should go to Pakistan and there, in peace and without any fear, I can move on streets, I can meet people, I can talk to people,” Ms Yousafzai said in a televised address from the PM’s house in Islamabad.<\/p>\n

“And I think that it’s my old home again… so it is actually happening, and I am grateful to all of you.”<\/p>\n

The trip is expected to last four days. Officials from her Malala Fund group are travelling with her, local media report.<\/p>\n

It has not been confirmed if she will visit her family’s hometown of Swat, once a militant stronghold, in the country’s rural north-west during her visit.<\/p>\n

Many on Twitter called for a warm welcome for the activist after news of her overnight homecoming broke.<\/p>\n
