Shamima Begum loses appeal against decision to revoke UK citizenship

Shamima Begum will discover whether she has won a Court of Appeal challenge over the removal of her British citizenship. Begum’s citizenship was revoked owing to national security concerns after she was found in a Syrian refugee camp in 2019 having travelled to the country aged 15 to join Islamic State. Last year, the 24-year-old lost a challenge against the decision at the Special Immigration Appeals Commission. Begum’s lawyers then attempted to overturn that decision at the Court of Appeal, with the Home Office opposing the challenge.
