clearblue...can't comment on Sharia courts but there is an unoffical parrallel legal system in Aust with regards to Aboringal tribal laws and there have been cases where an acused doesn't want to go through the parrallel system but through 'white man law' system, but its is hard to avoid. In the end, the acused basically flees. Can a person who is Muslim 'choose' not to go through Sharia law courts?
