Washington, April 18 (ANI): Shuja Nawaz, director of the south Asian centre at the Atlantic council, has said that Pakistan's deal with Taliban guerrillas to impose Islamic law on the Swat Valley in Pakistan is a cause of concern. On April 13, 2009, Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari approved the deal imposing Sharia law in the Swat valley, effectively empowering the Taliban and other groups there and in surrounding areas.
Nawaz said the move could allow militancy to seep into the rest of Pakistan.
