Pakistan deploys paratroops in Taliban-held area

---

PESHAWAR, April 23 (AP): Pakistani paramilitary forces have been deployed to protect government buildings and bridges in a district near the capital that has come under the Taliban's sway, an official said Thursday.
The six Frontier Constabulary platoons arrived in northwestern Buner Wednesday, days after militants from the neighbouring Swat Valley began infiltrating the area in large numbers, establishing checkpoints, patrolling roads and spreading fear.
The Taliban movement into the district came after the provincial government agreed to impose Islamic law in Swat and surrounding areas in exchange for peace with the insurgents.
