| Tensions between Mehsood, Wazir tribes end |
| 2008-09-08 |
| Tense relations between the Mehsood and Wazir tribes in South Waziristan ended on Sunday as the tribes agreed to resolve their issues through dialogue. The tribes reached an agreement in a jirga organised by political authorities, attended by elders from both sides. The tribes agreed to hand over vehicles seized from each other to the political authorities. Elders from both sides said they would consult the political authorities during any future crisis, and that there would be no restrictions on the flow of transport in the agency. Another jirga is scheduled between the tribes for September 12. |
