# amending Decision 2010/413/CFSP concerning restrictive measures against Iran

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article 29 thereof,

Having regard to Council Decision 2010/413/CFSP of 26 July 2010 concerning restrictive measures against Iran(1), and in particular Article 23 thereof,                        

Whereas:

(1)On 26 July 2010, the Council adopted Decision 2010/413/CFSP.

(2)By its judgment of 4 June 2014 in Case T-67/12(2), the General Court of the European Union annulled the Council's decision to include Sina Bank on the list of persons and                              entities subject to restrictive measures set out in Annex II to Decision 2010/413/CFSP.

(3)Sina Bank should be included again on the list of persons and entities subject to restrictive measures, on the basis of a                              new statement of reasons.

(4)By its judgments of 3 July 2014 in Cases T-155/13, T-157/13 and T-181/13(3), the General Court of the European Union annulled the Council's decision to include Babak Zanjani, Sorinet Commercial Trust                              Bankers, and Sharif University of Technology, respectively, on the list of persons and entities subject to restrictive measures                              set out in Annex II to Decision 2010/413/CFSP.

(5)Babak Zanjani, Sorinet Commercial Trust Bankers, and Sharif University of Technology should be included again on the list                              of persons and entities subject to restrictive measures, on the basis of a new statement of reasons.

(6)Following the judgment of 28 November 2013 of the Court of Justice of the European Union in Case C-280/12 P(4), Fereydoun Mahmoudian and Fulmen are not included on the list of persons and entities subject to restrictive measures in                              Annex II to Decision 2010/413/CFSP.

(7)Therefore, there are no longer grounds for keeping one entity on the list of persons and entities subject to restrictive measures                              set out in Annex II to Decision 2010/413/CFSP.

(8)The identifying information in relation to three entities on the list of persons and entities subject to restrictive measures                              set out in Annex II to Decision 2010/413/CFSP should be amended.

(9)Decision 2010/413/CFSP should be amended accordingly,
