and historical heritage,
Reiterating  its deep concern over the continuing violations of international

stressing that the capture by the Taliban of the Consulate-General of the Islamic

Recalling  the relevant international counter-terrorism conventions and in
particular the obligations of parties to those conventions to extradite or prosecute

of America to the Taliban to surrender them for trial (S/1999/1021),

Acting  under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations,

the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, comply promptly with its previous resolutions
