From

V. Testa, L.A. Antonelli (INAF-OAR), D. Fugazza (INAF-OABr), L. Di 
Fabrizio, G. Tessicini (INAF-TNG), and D. Malesani (SISSA), report on 
behalf of a larger collaboration:

After the revision of the XRT position (Godet et al., GCN 3301) of the 
X-ray afterglow of GRB 050421 (Barbier et al., GCN 3296), we re-examined 
our TNG K-band images (Fugazza et al., GCN 3300).

We find no sources within the revised XRT error box down to the 3-sigma 
limit K > 18.6.
