‘ISIS Bride’ Shamima Begum Bid To Restore British Citizenship Rejected

‘ISIS Bride’ Shamima Begum Bid To Restore British Citizenship Rejected:

Authored by Patricia Devlin via The Epoch Times,

Shamima Begum failed in a last-ditch legal bid to have her British citizenship restored.

On Wednesday, the Special Immigration Appeals Commission (SIAC) fully dismissed the 23-year-old’s legal challenge against a Home Office decision to revoke her status as a UK citizen.

It means Begum—who travelled from her London home to join the ISIS terrorist group in Syria when she was 15—will not be able to return to the UK.

The ruling followed a five-day hearing in November, where Begum’s lawyers argued she’d been the victim of trafficking for sexual exploitation in that she had fallen for ISIS propaganda and agreed to become a jihadi bride.
