WASHINGTON (Pajhwok): The United States on Wednesday designated Af-Pak-based Jamaat-ul-Ahrar and Europe-based Mohamed Abrini as global terrorists.
As a result of these designations, all property subject to U.S. jurisdiction in which Jamaat-ul-Ahrar and Abrini have any interest is blocked, and US persons are generally prohibited from engaging in any transactions with Jamaat-ul-Ahrar and Abrini, the State Department said. Jamaat-ul-Ahrar (JuA) is a splinter group of the Tehrik-e Taliban (TTP) based in the Af-Pak border region . . .
