(CNN) -- Today we can tell the remarkable story of Shazia Ramzan, a 15-year-old Pakistani schoolgirl. Last October Shazia was travelling home from school with her friend Malala Yousafzai when a Taliban gunman boarded their bus and shot both of them. Malala suffered head and facial injuries and had to be rushed to hospital in the UK. Shot in the neck and arm, Shazia spent a month in hospital while her deep wounds healed. Both were attacked by terrorists who wanted to stop girls going to school. Shazia dreams of being a doctor. Fighting back from her injuries, she attempted to resume her schooling at home in the Swat Valley. So keen was she to return to school at the earliest opportunity that she ignored continuing threats to her life from the same Taliban terrorists who shot her and Malala.

Sadly, the more that @placeholder spoke up, the more the threats escalated, making it difficult for her and her family to remain secure.

I first spoke to @placeholder last November, a month after the attempted assassination.

And until we provide both the resources and security for girls to travel to school and feel safe from the Taliban, then many of @placeholder's schools will remain closed.

Go not just to @placeholder, where I met many of the million-strong Malala demonstrators demanding a girl's right to school.

And it is this new liberation movement, led by girls, that we will celebrate in ten days' time when Malala addresses the @placeholder.
