Designation failure: On China\u2019s decision to block terror tag for Lashkar leader<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

India must continue to gather evidence and build its case on cross-border terrorism in international fora (A public meeting or assembly for open discussion)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There is a sense of d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu (The experience of thinking that a new situation had occurred before)<\/strong> about China\u2019s decision on June 16 to block the UN Security Council designation of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) deputy chief Abdul Rahman Makki as a terrorist, given that Beijing had repeatedly blocked the designation of the Jaish-e-Mohammad chief Masood Azhar until 2019, and other terror designations prior to that. Here too, the pile (a lot of something) <\/strong>of evidence against Abdul Makki is considerable: that he is part of the command and control of the UNSC-designated terror group LeT, later renamed the Jamaat ud Dawa (JuD), which is also a UN-designated terror group, is in no doubt. He was not just a member of the governing body or \u201cShura\u201d; he served as the head of its \u201cforeign relations\u201d department, and raised funding. He is also a member of LeT chief Hafiz Saeed\u2019s family (brother in law). The LeT\/JuD has been prosecuted (Conduct a prosecution (conduct of legal proceedings against a defendant for criminal behaviour) in a court of law) <\/strong>in India, the United States and even Pakistan for the 26\/11 Mumbai attacks, and Makki was himself tried and sentenced by a Pakistani special court to nine years imprisonment on terror financing charges \u2014 a ruling overturned (Cancel officially) <\/strong>a year later. India wants him for his involvement in attacks over the past two decades, including the Red Fort attack in Delhi in 2000, and, more recently, in attacks on security forces in Jammu and Kashmir. He is on India\u2019s UAPA list of designated terrorists and also the U.S.\u2019s Specially Designated Global Terrorists with a $2 million reward for information that would convict (declare guilty) <\/strong>him. Given what India and the U.S., which forwarded the proposal to put him on the UNSC\u2019s 1267 list of terrorists linked to the al Qaeda and ISIL, have called \u201coverwhelming\u201d (Very strong)<\/strong> evidence, New Delhi has termed China\u2019s move to place a hold on the process (this could delay it for as much as six months) as \u201cregrettable\u201d and \u201cextremely unfortunate\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While China\u2019s actions may be motivated by growing acrimony (A rough and bitter manner) <\/strong>with the U.S. and India, it is necessary to analyse the situation beyond bilateral (Affecting two parties) <\/strong>tensions. That Beijing\u2019s last-minute hold on Makki\u2019s listing came even as the Financial Action Task Force was meeting in Berlin to credit Pakistan\u2019s actions on terror financing, and begin the process to relieve it from the grey list (Grey listing means FATF has placed a country under increased monitoring to check its progress on measures against money laundering and terrorism financing)<\/strong>, pending an on-site visit in the next few months, may not be a coincidence. While China defends its actions on Makki and previous designations that it blocked as \u201ctechnical objections\u201d based on \u201cprocedural\u201d loopholes (an ambiguity that makes it possible to evade a difficulty or obligation)<\/strong>, it is clearly part of a pattern of protecting Pakistan internationally. It is also notable that as a result of China\u2019s objections or otherwise, none of the terror designations under UNSC 1267 thus far against LeT commander Zaki ur Rahman Lakhvi in 2008, Hafiz Saeed in 2009 and Masood Azhar in 2019 actually contains charges (a statement that says that somebody has done something illegal or bad) <\/strong>against them for any attacks carried out in India. Beyond criticism and continued pursuance (the action of trying to achieve something) <\/strong>of the listing, it is necessary for the Government to continue to gather evidence and systematically build its case on cross-border terrorism on the international stage that cannot be derailed (to cause to fail or become deflected from a purpose; reduce or delay the chances for success or development of) <\/strong>by political or geopolitical considerations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
