Nine years to the day since Shamima Begum entered ISIS controlled
Syria, she’ll find out whether she’s any closer to coming back to
Britain. Josh is at the Royal Courts of Justice in central London
to hear whether Begum’s lawyers have succeeded in arguing that
the British government’s decision to take away her citizenship
was unlawful.

After she emerged from the remnants of the Islamic State group in
2019, the British Home Secretary took away her citizenship saying
she was a threat to national security. Her lawyers claim that he
failed to consider whether she was victim of trafficking.

Will her appeal succeed?
