    • Shamima Begum fled the UK with three friend aged 15 to join ISIS in Syria
    • She married a Dutch jihadi and they had three children - all of whom have died
    • Begum stripped of her British citizenship because of her Bangladeshi heritage
    • But 20-year-old claims she is stateless - which is illegal under international law
    • Today Court of Appeal found her favour - months after tribunal found against her
    • Judges say she must be able to return to the UK to have an effective appeal
    Jihadi bride Shamima Begum must be allowed to return to the UK to fight the Government's decision to revoke her British citizenship for joining the murderous Islamic State regime, senior judges ruled today.

    Begum – one of three east London schoolgirls who travelled to Syria to join ISIS - lost her UK passport after she was found, nine months pregnant, in a Syrian refugee camp in February last year.

    Today the Court of Appeal found that she could not have an 'effective' appeal against the decision by the Special Immigration Appeals Commission (SIAC) in February while she is out of the country. The three judges, led by Lord Justice Flaux, demanded she should be allowed back to the UK to continue her legal battle to regain her British citizenship.

    The ruling said: 'The Court concludes that Ms Begum’s appeal to the Court of Appeal should be allowed, so that she can have leave to enter the UK in order for there to be a fair and effective appeal before SIAC'.

    The Court of Appeal acknowledged that letting her back into the country raises 'national security concerns' but said 'the only way in which she can have a fair and effective appeal before SIAC is for Ms Begum to be permitted to come into the UK to pursue that appeal'. The judgment added: 'Fairness and justice must, on the facts of this case, outweigh the national security concerns, so that the LTE (leave to enter the UK) appeals should be allowed'.

    The Home Office has not yet said if they will appeal today's decision to the Supreme Court - but it faces the embarrassing prospect of an extremist they claim poses a risk to the country's safety being allowed back to the UK.

    If Begum returns to Britain for the citizenship case she will either win and be handed back her British passport, or lose and face deportation with the process expected to run into 2021.

    Government sources, who described the ruling as a 'bitter blow' to UK national security, were last night said to be 'pouring over' the details of the secret judgment and its impact on other jihadi brides whose hope of returning to the UK have been raised significantly.

If Sanghi Indians can be allowed in the UK, so can she.

Probably felt he needed to do it to "prove" his credentials to the white majority as he is of Pakistani descent.

Totally shameful to strip someone who was a minor of 15 when they left the UK of their citizenship.
He was plain wrong and act was illegal

Initially my thoughts have always been **** her, she made her bed, let sleep in it. But lets be serious, she was a minor when groomed and fell for the ISIS holy jihad BS like many others. Right now she is poisoned, her brain has been skullfucked endlessley by ISIS propaganda and she will need a monumental effort to be deradicalised. But it will have to be done in the UK.
