MINGORA: The Swat Taliban have imposed a ban on display of weapons in market places, urban areas and even the Imamadheri centre, saying there is no need of taking arms if the Islamic Shariah has been enforced in letter and spirit.The decision was taken on the appeal of Tehrik Nifaz-i-Shariat Muhammadi chief Maulana Sufi Mohammad, Taliban spokesman Muslim Khan said.
Muslim Khan told the media by phone that they took the weapons around for the sake of imposition of Shariah and have succeeded in achieving this goal.
‘The Taliban are ready for any cooperation in the quick implementation of the Nizam-i-Adl regulation,’ he added.
The spokesman welcomed the passage of NAR from the National Assembly and paid homage to President Asif Ali Zardari and legislators for their quick decision in this respect.
He hoped now the Islamic law would soon be implemented in letter and spirit.
He said the meeting of Tehrik Taliban shura would soon be called to devise a future line of action.
‘Weapons are an ornament of Pakhtuns, but now that Shariah has been enforced in Malakand, there will be no need of arms anymore,’ the Taliban spokesman said.
