MINGORA, June 23: The future of the peace deal between the NWFP government and local Taliban in Swat hangs in the balance, although both sides are determined to keep it intact.

The local Taliban Shoora met at an unknown location on Monday and discussed the implementation of the agreement.

Sources said that Maulana Fazlullah, who was in hiding, presided over the meeting, which was attended by about 100 militant commanders and leaders.

The maulana’s spokesman told reporters that the Shoora had expressed concern over non-implementation of the deal signed on May 21.
