Islamic Regulations Implemented in Malakand


At length, the war-torn valley of Swat has witnessed the first successful peace deal as Nizam-e-Adl, a form of the Islamic law called Shariat, has been implemented in the Malakand Division. The Nizam-e-Adl regulations were approved and officially implemented by the consent of the provincial government and the Islamic militants fighting in Swat for several years. The deal has elicited a mixed response from the people, political leaderships, and the internationally community. Read the complete story here: http://freebird.instablogs.com/entry/islamic-regulations-implemented-in-malakand-for-bringing-peace/


The general response of instablogs members to the news has been a disappointment over/caution against the newly implemented Nizam-e-Adl. But local people in Swat still hope that the deal will start the door of neotiating the conflict away. A feature video on the topic can be viewed here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kh5l_mXypPs.
