OFAC adds Sudan-related and Global Magnitsky designations

The Treasury Department yesterday issued two announcements of actions taken by its Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC):

• The sanctioning of Mohammad Hamdan Daglo Mousa (Hemedti), the leader of Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (RSF), and seven companies and one individual linked to the RSF.
• The sanctioning of Antal Rogan, a senior Hungarian government official, for his involvement in corruption in Hungary. He was designated under the authority of Executive Order 13818, which builds upon and implements the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act.
