ISLAMABAD - Pakistani leaders have agreed to establish military courts for terrorism related cases, after meeting to discuss a national plan of action following a deadly Taliban school attack, officials said Wednesday. 

"The political parties have agreed to establish military courts after almost 11 hours of deliberations," a senior government official told AFP, requesting anonymity. 

He said all terrorism related charges will be dealt with by the military courts.
