news.scotsman.com, A BANK accused of indirectly helping to finance Iran's nuclear weapons programme has failed to overturn a Treasury order barring it from operating in the UK.

Bank Mellat, one of the largest in Iran, was effectively cut out of the financial sector by the order, which was brought under a section of the Counter-Terrorism Act.
