Islamic law to be imposed in parts of Pakistan

Islamic law is to be administered by government run courts and not illiterate maulvis. The main grievance of the locals was that they could not get decisions from civil courts for years and that caused a lot of problems in the area.

Shariyah is not going to be implemented by Taliban which would lose popular support (if any) if the grievances of the locals are addressed.

Here is some new which you might have missed … Qazis will run the courts and these qazis will be interviewed by Maulana Sufi Mohammad …

A high ranking government functionary announced on Sunday that Maulana Sufi Mohammad would conduct interviews of qazis and they would be appointed in Malakand region prior to the deadline of March 15 set by him.

The announcement made by the commissioner regarding appointment of qazis is in contradiction to the earlier stance of the provincial government including the Chief Minister Ameer Haider Hoti who had claimed that the qazis would be regular judicial officers functioning in the normal judicial system but would be called qazis in Malakand just like the existing system
