Shamima Begum trafficked by ISIS to Syria for sexual exploitation, court hears

Shamima Begum, who left the UK for Syria as a teenager to join the Islamic State group, was a victim of human trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation, a court has heard.

Ms Begum travelled to Syria in 2015, with her citizenship stripped on national security grounds in 2019.

A five-day immigration hearing is considering a new attempt to challenge the removal of her UK citizenship.

The Home Office insists she continues to pose a threat to national security.

Bullshit.
