US to consider designating
Jaish as terrorist outfit

The US would consider later this year if Pakistan-based militant outfit Jaish-e-Mohammad can be formally designated as a terrorist organisation, state department spokesman Richard Boucher said in Washington on Friday.

He said although Jaish-e-Mohammad, which claimed responsibility for the recent car bomb attack outside the Jammu and Kashmir assembly which left 38 dead and scores injured, has not been formally designated as a terrorist outfit, it is listed in the state department's annual report on global terrorism.
