KABUL (Reuters) - The Afghan president may not have signed a key measure aimed at clamping down on the financing of terrorism, reviving concern the country's banks could go on a money laundering blacklist, an international official in Kabul said on Friday.

On Wednesday the government said President Hamid Karzai had signed legislation cracking down on financial crime, temporarily easing concern Afghan banks would be put on the blacklist this week, alongside Yemen and Syria.
