Saudi Arabia imposed sanctions targeting the Pakistan-based militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba, the just before the visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The sanctions targeted four individuals and two affiliated organizations, including James Alexander McLintock and the Pakistan-based Al-Rahmah Welfare Organization, which the U.S. Treasury Department said was a front for al-Qaida.
Pakistan declined to provide ships, aircraft and troops to the Saudi-led fight to halt Iranian-allied Houthi rebels in Yemen last year.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to convey India’s appreciation of Saudi Arabia’s sanctions targeting the Lashkar-e-Taiba, as well as the need to take decisive action against Pakistan-based terrorist outfits when he meets King Salman bin Abdul Aziz Al-Saud.
