Watch: Court of Appeal rules on Shamima Begum’s citizenship removal appeal
Watch again as Shamima Begum discovers if she has won a Court of Appeal challenge over the removal of her British citizenship on Friday (23 February).
Ms Begum travelled to Syria in 2015 aged 15 and her citizenship was revoked on national security grounds shortly after she was found in a Syrian refugee camp in February 2019.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).
Ms Begum’s lawyers brought a bid to overturn that decision at the Court of Appeal, with the Home Office opposing the challenge.
Three appeal judges are due to give their ruling on Ms Begum’s appeal on Friday.
