EU court upholds bar on Iran group terrorism listing

None

The EU's highest court upheld a decision on Wednesday to remove an Iranian opposition group from the EU's terrorism blacklist, a ruling that could affect the fate of thousands of the organisation's members stranded in Iraq.

 

France had appealed against a decision by a lower EU court that ordered the European bloc to remove the People's Mujahideen Organisation of Iran (PMOI) from its terrorism list, but the European Court of Justice rejected the appeal. (Reuters)
