Taliban threaten drug, music dealers
MIRANSHAH: Taliban militants on Thursday gave music shop owners and drug dealers a 10-day deadline to close business or face the consequences, local officials said. Using megaphones, Taliban drove through Mir Ali town in North Waziristan delivering the warning, they said. Drugs and music are destroying tribal culture. We will not allow this conspiracy, shopkeeper Enayat Khan quoted the Taliban as saying. Officials said Taliban had similarly threatened opium, alcohol and hashish dealers.Posted by: Fred 2008-06-06 |
