PERMANENT SWAT'S TALIBAN CEASEFIRE AGREED

Taleban rebels in Pakistan's Swat valley have agreed to a "permanent ceasefire", a senior official has said. Syed Mohammad Javed, commissioner of Malakand, which includes Swat, revealed the deal but gave no details. There has been no confirmation from the Taleban.
Swat, once one of Pakistan's most popular holiday destinations, has been blighted by violence since 2007.
Reports of the pact come a week after a 10-day ceasefire and a deal to implement Sharia law in parts of Swat.
Local Taleban met a senior elder, Sufi Mohammad, to discuss ceasefire terms before the agreement was announced, reports said.
Sufi Mohammad, a pro-Taleban cleric, is the father-in-law of Maulana Fazlullah, who has been waging a violent campaign to impose Sharia in the region.
Following the deal struck last Sunday to agree to introduce Sharia law, negotiations between Maulana Fazlullah and Sufi Mohammad now appear to have led to a more permanent deal.
"They have made commitment that they will observe a permanent ceasefire and we'll do the same," Mr Javed, the commissioner of Malakand, told reporters on Saturday.
A Taleban leader was expected to confirm the ceasefire later on Saturday, Reuters news agency reported.
