he Taleban have returned to the airwaves in parts of Afghanistan with relaunch of their broadcasts on a pirate radio station.

 

They plan to broadcast every day in the main languages of Afghanistan, Dari and Pashto.

 

The station is called Voice of Shariat, or Islamic Law, and was named after the one the Taleban ran before they were driven from power in 2001.

A Taleban spokesman said one hour of programming would be broadcast twice a day using a mobile transmitter to avoid being shut down by American or Afghan forces.
