DEPARTMENT OF STATE

[Public Notice 8777]


In the Matter of the Review and Amendment of the Designation of 
Lashkar-e-Tayyiba, aka LT, aka LeT, aka Lashkar-e-Toiba, aka Lashkar-i-
Taiba, aka al Mansoorian, aka al Mansooreen, aka Army of the Pure, aka 
Army of the Righteous, aka Army of the Pure and Righteous, and Other 
Aliases, as a Foreign Terrorist Organization Pursuant to Section 219 of 
the Immigration and Nationality Act

    Based upon a review of the Administrative Record assembled in this 
matter pursuant to Section 219(a)(4)(C) and (b) of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act, as amended (8 U.S.C. 1189(a)(4)(C), (b)) (``INA''), 
and in consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary of the 
Treasury, the Secretary of State concludes that the circumstances that 
were the basis for the 2008 decision to maintain the designation of the 
aforementioned organization as a foreign terrorist organization have 
not changed in such a manner as to warrant revocation of the 
designation and that the national security of the United States does 
not warrant a revocation of the designation, and that there is a 
sufficient factual basis to find that Lashkar-e-Tayyiba, also known 
under the aliases listed above, uses or has used additional aliases, 
namely, Jama'at-ud-Dawa, Al-Anfal Trust, Tehrik-e-Hurmat-e-Rasool, and 
Tehrik-e-Tahafuz Qibla Awwal.
    Therefore, the Secretary of State hereby determines that the 
designation of the aforementioned organization as a foreign terrorist 
organization, pursuant to Section 219 of the INA (8 U.S.C. 1189), shall 
be maintained. In addition, effective upon the date of publication in 
the Federal Register, the Secretary of State hereby amends the 
redesignation of Lashkar-e-Tayyiba as a foreign terrorist organization, 
pursuant to Sec.  219(b) of the INA (8 U.S.C. 1189(b)), to include the 
following new alias and other possible transliterations thereof: 
Jama'at-ud-Dawa, Al-Anfal Trust, Tehrik-e-Hurmat-e-Rasool, Tehrik-e-
Tahafuz Qibla Awwal.

    Dated: June 13, 2014.
John F. Kerry,
Secretary of State.
