US embassy cable - 05ABUDHABI3050

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

Abdullah Rashid Al Noaimi on July 5 and provided him with 
copies of E.O. 13382 and UNSCR 1540.  At Al Noaimi's request, 
we will also pass a copy of the E.O. to the UAE's State

Rahim Al Awadi, the Director of the UAE Central Bank's 
Anti-Money Laundering and Suspicious Cases Unit.  Al Awadi 
recognized Tanchon Commercial Bank, and said he thought the 
bank had some accounts in the UAE.  He told econoff that he 
would immediately forward the annex listing the eight named 
entities to the Attorney General for asset freezes. 
 
3. (C) BIS officer delivered reftel demarche to Mohammed Al 
Muhairy, Director General of the UAE Federal Customs 
Authority on July 5.  Al Muhairy thanked BIS officer for 
bringing this to his attention and noted that it would be 
good to pass the specific information contained in the E.O. 
to the individual emirates' customs organizations, so they 
could watch for shipments of materials connected to any of 
the entities cited in the Executive Order.  BIS officer will 
deliver a copy of the E.O. to Dubai Customs officials.
