Hafiz Saeed to challenge UN in ICJ over UNSC sanctions
by pakpoint on December 11, 2008
The chief of a Pakistani Islamic charity, who was added by the United Nations Security Council to a list of people facing sanctions for links with al-Qaida and the Taliban, Thursday announced to challenge the decision in the International Court of Justice.
Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, chief of Jamaat-ud-Daawa, rejected the UN decision and said it was taken in haste and without listening to him while addressing a press conference.
Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, Haji Muhammad Ashraf and Mohammad Ahmed Bahaziq, are “subject to the assets freeze, travel ban and arms embargo,” set out in Security Council resolution 1822 of 2008, said the al-Qaida and Taliban Sanctions Committee on Wednesday.
The above-mentioned names belong to the banned “Lashkar-e-Taiba” group which has been blamed by India for the Mumbai attacks, which killed nearly 180 people and injured over 300 others.
The Security Council panel also said that the charity Jamaat-ud-Daawa was a front for Lashkar-e-Taiba and subject to sanctions.
“We will seek relief from Pakistani courts and will also approach International Court of Justice,” Hafiz Saeed told a news conference.
“The ban has been imposed on India’s behest. It is an attack on Islam and religious group and also on Pakistan,” he said.
“They are trying to put ban on Islamic charity and we have the right to respond to the propaganda against us,” Saeed said.
He denied involvement in the Mumbai attacks and said that India should provide evidence to courts and he would appear before the courts.
Hafiz Saeed to challenge UN in ICJ over UNSC sanctions
Jamat-ud-Dawah, Hafiz Saeed, Zaki-ur-Rehman, Haji Ashraf added to UN terror list

Jamat-ud-Dawah, Hafiz Saeed, Zaki-ur-Rehman, Haji Ashraf added to UN terror list
A UN Security Council panel declared Wednesday that a Pakistan-based charity is a front group for the terrorist organization blamed in the attacks on Mumbai that killed 171 people. In a move sought by India and the US, the panel said the charity Jamaat-ud-Dawa is a front for the Pakistani militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba and now subject to UN sanctions on terrorist organizations. It also approved the designation of four suspected plotters of the Mumbai attacks as terrorists subject to sanctions. The UN identified all four individuals as leaders of Lashkar. They include Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, operations chief and the alleged mastermind of the Mumbai siege whose arrest was announced Wednesday. The others are Hafiz Mohammed Saeed, the leader of the charity; Haji Muhammad Ashraf, Lashkar's chief of finance; and Mahmoud Mohammad Ahmed Bahaziq, a financier with Lashkar. Among the sanctions imposed on the group and the four individuals by the Security Council's al-Qaida and Taliban Sanctions Committee were an asset freeze, travel ban and arms embargo on the individuals. The panel is authorized to make such decisions on behalf of the Security Council. India had pressed the Security Council for sanctions against the charity on Tuesday, contending along with the US that Jamaat-ud-Dawa is a front for Lashkar. Since 2005, that sanctions committee -- a powerful tool of the UN's powerhouse 15-nation Security Council -- has considered Lashkar to be a terrorist organization affiliated with al-Qaida. The US and European Union also have sanctioned the group. By agreeing that Jamaat-ud-Dawa is essentially an alias for Lashkar, the UN panel has significantly added to India's pressure for Pakistan's civilian government to prove that it is cracking down on militant groups and pursuing extremists blamed for last month's siege of India's commercial capital.
