84As regards the consequences of that infringement, it must be borne in mind that, following the case-law, the lack of communication or the belated disclosure of a document on which the Council relied in order to adopt or maintain the restrictive measures concerning an entity does not constitute a breach of the rights of the defence that would justify the annulment of the acts concerned unless it is established that the restrictive measures concerned could not have been lawfully adopted or maintained if the undisclosed document had had to be excluded as inculpatory evidence (judgment in Bank Melli Iran v Council, cited in paragraph 79 above, EU:T:2013:397, paragraph 100, and judgment of 6 September 2013 in Persia International Bank v Council, T‑493/10, ECR (Extracts), EU:T:2013:398, paragraph 85).
