Pashtun Jirga in Karachi sentences a couple to be electrocuted to death

It's the same in Afghanistan. The whole point of Jirgas is to try to resolve problems through arbitration instead of capital punishment. In the past, when there was something like a murder that couldn't be resolved through arbitration, the government would be involved to arrest/execute the perpetrator. Now that the central government is extremely weak, either the Taliban carry out the punishment, or the victim's family gets revenge themselves. In neither case does the Jirga make themselves kings and doles out death penalties.

You were going the right direction until the last sentence. They do dole out death penalties. They dole them out in Afghanistan and in FATA.
You claim to be a Zazai. Ask your parents about a shagwal who was preaching Qadani and was told many times to stop but wouldnt and a tribal jirga passed out capital punishment on him and they stoned him to death. The government tried to protect him but they couldnt. This is a famous story.

One thing in todays environment is that no one listens to to the jirga or elders because most are corrupt and take money for decisions which is another reason that people turn to the Taliban who are not.
