SIX terror groups, including al-Qaeda and its offshoots and Indonesian group Jemaah Islamiah, have been relisted under the Australian criminal code. Acting Attorney-General Jason Clare said it would remain an offence to be a member of the groups, train with them or to provide funding and support. The organisations were relisted after careful consideration of advice from security agencies. The organisations are: Abu Sayyaf Group, first listed in 2002 and continues to conduct terrorist attacks and kidnapping across the southern Philippines; Al-Qaeda continues to plan, fund and conduct terrorist attacks around the world; Al-Qaeda in Iraq, a close al-Qaeda affiliate, has conducted multiple terrorist attacks in Iraq since 2010, killing hundreds; Al-Qaeda in the Lands of the Islamic Maghreb has terror attacks in northern Algeria and increasingly in Mali, Mauritania and Niger; Jamiat ul-Ansar continues to use violence to seek the unification of Kashmir with Pakistan; Jemaah Islamiah remains a functional terrorist organisation and operates throughout Indonesia. Each listing runs for three years. Currently 18 terror groups are proscribed under Australian law.
