WASHINGTON, Jan 27: The US has ordered a financial clampdown on two South African businessmen for sending money to Pakistan for supporting the Taliban and Al Qaeda extremists. The US Treasury Department said it has targeted cousins Farhad and Junaid Dockrat, as well as Sniper Africa, a company in which Junaid Dockrat holds a 70 per cent owner’s stake. Adam J. Szubin, director of the US Treasury’s office of foreign assets control, told reporters any bank accounts or other financial assets belonging to the two men in the US had been frozen.
