Al Qaeda Sanctions Committee

China put a last-minute block on a joint proposal by India and the United States in the UN to list Pakistan-based terrorist Abdul Rehman Makki as a 'Global Terrorist' under the Al Qaeda Sanctions Committee of the UN Security Council.

India on Thursday slammed Pakistan for its "blatant attempt to politicise" the working of the 1267 Al Qaeda Sanctions Committee after Islamabad's move to get four Indian nationals added to the sanctions list was blocked by the UN Security Council.

The United Nations Security Council has sanctioned a splinter group of the Pakistan Taliban, subjecting it to assets freeze and an arms embargo. The Security Council's Al Qaeda Sanctions Committee yesterday added Jamaat-Ul-Ahrar (JuA) to the ISIS and Al Qaeda sanctions list.

India has submitted to the UN's Sanction Committee a fresh list of 11 terrorists from Pakistan-based terror groups affiliated to al Qaeda, Taliban and other outfits responsible for terrorism in the country.

Britain, the United States and France have proposed that Islamist extremist group Ansar al-Sharia in Libya be blacklisted under the United Nations al Qaeda sanctions regime, diplomats said on Tuesday, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Almost two years after his death at the hands of US special forces in Pakistan, a UN Security Council committee has removed al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden from its sanctions list, although an order freezing any assets of the Islamist extremist remains in place.
