Civil judges don't attend civil courts: Sufi Muhammad
2009-03-17
SWAT: The chief of banned Tehreek Nafaz-e-Shariat-e-Mohammadi (TNSM) Sufi Muhammad has threatened judges against attending civil courts from Tuesday. He said, "I will personally monitor the hearings of Shariah courts."

Addressing a press conference here he said, "According to the deal signed with government, civil judges will have no role in future whatsoever and all cases will be followed under Shariah courts so the civil judges must refrain from courts from Tuesday."

"Shariah has already been imposed in Malakand Division therefore there is no need of Presidents' signature", he remarked vowing, "We will soon setup Dar-ul-Qaza courts for filing appeals against the verdicts of Shariah courts."

More Shariah courts will be established in other divisions of Malakand, subject to the just verdicts from Qazis, he added.
