Viewing cable 08KATHMANDU25, TERRORISM FINANCE: DOMESTIC DESIGNATION OF FORMER

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables

Designation Delivered to MFA 
---------------------------- 
 
1.  On January 3, Emboff delivered reftel information on the 
U.S. domestic designation of Iraqi Former Regime Elements 
(FRE) to Mani Bhattarai, Section Officer for UN and 
International Organizations at the Ministry of Foreign 
Affairs (MFA).  Bhattarai reviewed the information and asked 
if the United States planned to submit the FRE names to the 
UN. 
 
Central Bank Doubtful Assets in Nepal 
------------------------------------- 
 
2.  On January 7, Emboff delivered reftel information to 
Narayan Prasad Paudel, Director of Banks and Financial 
Institutions Regulation at Nepal Rastra Bank, the central 
bank of Nepal. Paudel expressed doubt these individuals' 
assets would end up in Nepal.  He asked if post or the 
Department would send the information via official diplomatic 
correspondence to Rastra Bank.  He said he would be unable to 
distribute the information to banks and financial 
institutions without such a formal request.  Post will follow 
up with MFA contacts to address Rastra Bank's unusual 
reluctance to provide assistance.
