No trial, just execution.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan — In a gruesome public spectacle, Taliban-linked militants Friday executed two Afghan men accused of spying for the United States, slitting their throats and parading their severed heads before a cheering crowd

Snip:

The dual execution was brutal even by the fundamentalist code that prevails in the tribal areas, which lie largely beyond the jurisdiction of the Pakistani government. The killing of accused spies is not unusual, but their public parading is a rarity.
