On Wednesday, the President of Somali Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed has signed a bill which will permit the implementation of Islamic law (Sharia) in Somalia. The Deputy Parliament speaker, Osman Elmi Boqore said that the politicians would support the proposal. Boqore said,

All the people in Somalia are Muslims, so there is no reason why the parliament should not endorse the Sharia law bill.

Last month the parliament allowed the implementation of this Islamic law. And at last the bill pass by President Sharif Sheikh a day after received a peace proposal by spiritual clerics. This new UN-backed Somalia’s government was formed in the adjacent Republic of Djibouti following the midway government merged with a coalition of UIC (Union of Islamic Courts), led by Sheikh Ahmed.

Sharia law was a key demand in the war-torn country. Almost 100 percent people of the country are Muslim, so every citizen of the country welcomes this new law.

Pak Supreme Court (SC) is to hear country’s ex Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s appeal against the conviction for the ‘hijacking’ a commercial jet plane by attempting to stop it to land at Karachi. The jet was carrying the former Pakistani Army chief Gen. Pervez Musharraf.

The court admitted that appeal for hearing yesterday and issued a notice to the federal administration asking the authority to give its views on this case. Some sources said the larger SC bench that was hearing the appeal against an order barring Sharif from contesting elections; the same bench would hear the appeal in his hijack case.

In the court Sharif’s advocate Khawaja Haris said the appeal in this hijacking case must not be filed on right time since Sharif was deported twice as the apex court had given its verdict in this case. He added Nawaz was both the prime minister and defense minister of the country at that time. So, he had the power to pass instructions to divert Pervez Musharraf’s airliner because of an emergency situation.

12, October 1999, Sharif had dismissed Musharraf from chief of army fearing a martial coup. He appointed Ziauddin Butt as new army chief. Butt was the head of Pak spy agency ISI. That time, Musharraf was in Colombo. He boarded a business flight home. Afterward, Sharif ordered at Karachi airport authority to be barricaded on the runway to prevent Musharraf’s aircraft from landing. But the armed forces disregarded his orders, and refused to agree Musharraf’s sacking. As a result, the military took over the airport and cleared all barricades.

Eventually, the aircraft landed with evidently just few minutes of fuel for flying. Instantaneously after his arrival Musharraf staged a successful bloodless coup, toppled the elected government and took the power.

A Texas man arrested for failing to appear for jury duty and was released after 83 days in jail. The length of the detention was described as “unacceptable” by the judge.

34 year- old Douglas Maupin, a masonry contractor was arrested 15th February after police pulled him over for speeding. After that, police detained him on a 2003 warrant for failure to appear to jury duty. He was unable to pay his $1,500 bond and said his attempt to get a public defender was rebuffed by a jail clerk.

Chris Oldner, district judge said was unaware of Maupin’s detention until Friday, even though the case was assigned to his court. The judge who has signed 2003 warrant had retired. And the official said the case was assigned to the court of his replacement, but the offence did not fall under that court’s responsibility.

Oldner told the Morning News, “He should not have spent that much time. This is unacceptable, I don’t know why the process failed to notify us.”

Oldner also added that, Maupin should have been allowed to apply for a public defender. However, the 34 year-old Texas man said he just wanted his day in court.  The judge promised to investigate and said he was disappointed this had happened.

A man is accused of stabbing his 24 year old wife to death front of her mother and two boys has been jailed for life in British court. The man was shouting abuse at her family as he was taken away.

Hajrudin Hasanovic, who convicted of the murder generally in a West Sussex Court, but he was shouted at his former wife’s devastated family and friends while he was taken to the jail,

“My children will never forgive you for what you have done to me and Cassie. . .you killed her. You are bastards all of you.”

It is assumed that after the court had told him that he lost the custody battle and was being deported, he dragged her out of the car and stabbed a large kitchen knife in to Mrs. Hasanovic’s chest as her mother was driving her with her two sons to the women’s refuge in Bognor Regis, West Sussex, on July 29 last year.

The dreadful tale begins when 24 year old mother Cassandra Hasanovic, who wanted refuge from her violent husband in Australia but was refused extended during a three-week trial. Lewes Crown Court heard that the couple’s relationship broken in May 2007 after Hajrudin Hasanovic, 33, was arrested and freed on bail on suspicion of sexually attacking his wife.

Mrs. Hasanovic made number of statements to the police in Australia and in the UK pointing the threatening behavior of his husband. In one statement she said,

“I am genuinely scared for my children and my own safety and feel that they would be in danger if they were near Harry.”

However, Hajrudin Hasanovic denies murder but admits manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
