New Delhi, May 6
Terrorist outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) responsible for whipping up violence in Jammu and Kashmir, has been banned by the United Nations (UN) for its linkages with the Al-Qaida.

The organisation, known by several aliases as well, has been proscribed under the UN Resolution 1267 mandating all states to freeze its assets and prevent the entry of its activists into or providing transit facilities through their territories.
