Shamima Begum has lost her challenge over the removal of her British citizenship at the Court of Appeal. Ms Begum travelled to Syria in 2015 aged 15 and her citizenship was revoked on national security grounds shortly after she was found in a Syrian refugee camp in February 2019.
Last year, the now 24-year-old lost a challenge against the decision at the Special Immigration Appeals Commission (SIAC), which said the removal of her citizenship was lawful. Ms Begum’s lawyers brought a bid to overturn that decision at the Court of Appeal, with the Home Office opposing the challenge.
In a ruling on Friday, three judges dismissed Ms Begum’s bid. Giving the ruling, Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr said: "It could be argued the decision in Ms Begum’s case was harsh. It could also be argued that Ms Begum is the author of her own misfortune. But it is not for this court to agree or disagree with either point of view."
At the appeal hearing in October, Samantha Knights KC told the court the Government had failed to consider the legal duties owed to Ms Begum as a potential victim of trafficking or as a result of "state failures" in her case. But Sir James Eadie KC, for the Home Office, said the “key feature” of Ms Begum’s case was national security.
He continued: "The fact that someone is radicalised, and may have been manipulated, is not inconsistent with the assessment that they pose a national security risk." In its ruling last year, the SIAC concluded there were "arguable breaches of duty" by state bodies – including the Metropolitan Police, Tower Hamlets Council and Ms Begum’s school – in not preventing her from travelling to Syria.
