NOWSHERA: Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Sami (JUI-S) head and Defence of Pakistan Council chairman Maulana Samiul Haq said on Sunday that there would have been no need for the establishment of the military courts had the judicial system been set up in accordance with the injunctions of Islam after partition.
Addressing a gathering at the Darul Uloom Islamia in Azakhel Bala, he said his party introduced the Shariah Bill in the Senate in the nineties that envisaged replacing the present judicial system with Shariah.
Seminary students and clerics from all over the country attended the function in large number. The Maulana said the then Shariah Bill was passed by majority in the Senate, but the then prime minister Nawaz Sharif undermined its spirit.
The JUI-S chief said the enemies were conspiring to create disturbance in the country. He said there was a dire need for waging jihad against those plotting to damage the country. Samiul Haq said that the British forces and Soviet Union faced defeats in Afghanistan at the hands of jihadi forces. He said the US had also suffered a humiliating defeat in Afghanistan and it was mulling withdrawing troops from the war-torn country.
