Taliban in November 1999 for refusing to send bin Laden to the United States or a third country for trial on terrorism charges in connection with the bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998.
The sanctions were later extended to al Qaeda and in July 2005, they were extended again to cover affiliates and splinter groups of al Qaeda and the Taliban.
In June 2011, the Security Council voted unanimously to treat al Qaeda and the Taliban separately when it comes to U.N. sanctions, a move aimed at supporting the Afghan government’s reconciliation efforts and more effectively fighting global terrorism.
Bin Laden’s designation on the sanctions list gave his name as Usama Muhammed Awad bin Laden with 13 “good quality” aliases and two “low quality” aliases. It gave four specific dates and two years, 1956 and 1957, for his birth date and noted that his Saudi citizenship was withdrawn and that the Taliban gave him Afghan nationality.
