continued to pray for her recovery, the military said.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The shooting of 14-year-old Malala Yousafzai, who campaigned for the right to an education, has been denounced worldwide and by the Pakistani authorities, who have offered a reward of more than $100,000 for the capture of her attackers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A board of doctors is continuously monitoring her condition,&#8221; it added.<\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf visited Malala on Friday, paying tribute to her and two friends who were also wounded when a gunman boarded their school bus on Tuesday and opened fire.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was not a crime against an individual but a crime against humanity and an attack on our national and social values,&#8221; he told reporters, pledging renewed vigor in Pakistan&#8217;s struggle with Islamist militancy.<\/p>\n<p>Military spokesman Major General Asim Saleem Bajwa Friday said the next 36 to 48 hours would be critical for Malala.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The attack has sickened Pakistan, where Malala won international prominence with a blog for the BBC<\/strong> that highlighted atrocities under the Taliban who terrorized the Swat valley from 2007 until a 2009 army offensive.<\/p>\n<p>Activists say the shooting should be a wake-up call to whose who advocate appeasement with the Taliban, but analysts suspect there will be no seismic shift in a country that has sponsored radical Islam for decades.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Schools opened with prayers for Malala on Friday and special prayers were held at mosques across the country for her speedy<\/strong> recovery at the country&#8217;s top military hospital in the city of Rawalpindi.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source AP<\/em><br \/>\n<!--break--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Pakistani
