1. (U) This is an action request. Please see paragraph 3.
2. (S) Embassy delivered reftel prenotification to the
Foreign and Commonwealth Office on December 22. On January
3, Rod Mackenna of the FCO's Counter Terrorism Policy
Department notified us that the UK will support a UN 1267
designation for Farhad Ahmed Dockrat, Junaid Ismail Dockrat,
and Sniper Africa. Mackenna noted, however, that FCO lawyers
had flagged the fact that the information contained in the
draft statement of case refers to activities that took place
in 2001 and 2004. According to FCO lawyers, there generally
is a requirement of an "existing" relationship with either
the Taliban or Al-Qaida to meet the criteria for designation.
Mackenna asked whether the U.S. has any additional
information on the three targets that demonstrates their
ongoing ties to Al-Qaida.
3. (S) Action requested: Please provide us with any
additional releasable information we can share with the UK on
the Dockrat targets which demonstrates ongoing links to
Al-Qaida.
