The British government lost Wednesday the courtfight to overturn a ruling that it must end the "perverse" listing of an Iranian opposition group (PMOI) as a banned terrorist group.
The Court of Appeal in London ruled there were "no valid grounds" to contend that the Proscribed Organisations Appeal Commission made legal errors when it ordered the People's Mojahedin Organisation of Iran (PMOI) to be removed from the blacklist.
The National Council of Resistance of Iran, which includes the PMOI, welcomed the decision and called to be removed from the EU list.
The Iranian embassy in London criticised the verdict, claiming it had "discredited" Britain's position in combating extremism and suggested it could have "serious repercussions" for peace, security and international relations.
