European Court Allows Freezing of Terrorist Assets

European Court in Luxembourg now has empowered members-states to freeze the assets of persons and organizations listed by the UN as suspected terrorists..


The European list has 450 names linked to al Qaeda, Osama bin Laden and Taliban. The ruling was handed down in response to the first of 15 pending cases.

An interesting development..I'd love to know who else is actually on the list and whom the plaintiffs are..
