DEPARTMENT OF STATE

[Public Notice 11938]


Designation of Osama Mehmood, Atif Yahya Ghouri, Muhammad Maruf, 
and Qari Amjad as Specially Designated Global Terrorists

    Acting under the authority of and in accordance with section 
1(a)(ii)(B) of E.O. 13224 of September 23, 2001, as amended by E.O. 
13268 of July 2, 2002, E.O. 13284 of January 23, 2003, and E.O. 13886 
of September 9, 2019, I hereby determine that the persons known as 
Osama Mehmood (also known as Usama Mahmud, Abu Zar, Atta Ullah, Zar 
Wali); Atif Yahya Ghouri (also known as Yahya Shoaib Ghauri, Qari Atif, 
Qari Ibrahim, Atif Ghauri); and Muhammad Maruf (also known as Ali 
Hamzah, Maulana Musanna, Maulana Ubaidullah) are leaders of al-Qa'ida 
in the Indian Subcontinent, and the person known as Qari Amjad (also 
known as Mufti Hazrat, Mufti Muzahim) is a leader of Tehrik-e Taliban 
Pakistan, groups whose property and interests in property are currently 
blocked pursuant to a determination by the Secretary of State pursuant 
to E.O. 13224.
    Consistent with the determination in section 10 of E.O. 13224 that 
prior notice to persons determined to be subject to the Order who might 
have a constitutional presence in the United States would render 
ineffectual the blocking and other measures authorized in the Order 
because of the ability to transfer funds instantaneously, I determine 
that no prior notice needs to be provided to any person subject to this 
determination who might have a constitutional presence in the United 
States, because to do so would render ineffectual the measures 
authorized in the Order.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register.
    Authority: E.O. 13224.

    Dated: November 8, 2022.
Antony J. Blinken,
Secretary of State.
