Prominent members of the international community supported listing of these three terrorists by the Al Qaeda Sanctions Committee of the United Nations Security Council in September last year. China was the only country who had vetoed the decision then.

In April this year, China also blocked India's bid at the UN to ban JeM chief Masood Azhar, the mastermind of the Pathankot terror attack.

Apart from India many other countries criticised that decision of China.
