| [Dawn] Several people claiming to be relatives of Malala Yousufzai, the 14-year-old Pak girl shot in the head by the Taliban, tried to enter the British hospital where she was being treated, an official said Tuesday. The medical director of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham where Malala is in intensive care stressed that the incidents did not create any security concerns and police said nobody was placed in durance vile Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try! "We have had some, I guess I would say, irritating incidents overnight and I understand that a number of people have been placed in durance vile Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try! but there are no security concerns," hospital medical director David Rosser told journalists. "I understand that a number of people turned up claiming to be members of Malala's family -- which we don't believe to be true -- and have been placed in durance vile Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try! However a police spokeswoman denied that any arrests were made. "We are investigating what happened but I can confirm that there were no arrests," the spokeswoman for West Midlands Police told AFP. The teenager spent a comfortable first night in the hospital, Rosser said, after she arrived in Birmingham in central England on a flight from Pakistain on Monday. |
