Jus sanguinis According to the Citizenship Act 1951, one method of acquiring Bangladeshi nationality is via jus sanguinis (Citizenship by right of blood). This means one may acquire citizenship regardless of whether they were born on Bangladeshi sovereign territory or not. Bangladeshi citizenship is provided primarily jus sanguinis, or through bloodline, irrespective of the place or the legitimacy of the birth.[2] Therefore, any child born to a Bangladeshi woman illegitimately outside Bangladeshi soil would still be a Bangladeshi citizen, whereas a child born to two non-nationals in Bangladesh would not. This method is restricted if the child's parents also acquired their nationality through naturalisation or by descent.
Looks like she could be on her way back to the UK as 3 judges in the supreme Court say it's not right that she can't come back to the UK to appeal the loss of her citizenship.
I do not expect any Brit will be surprised uk will allow her to return to uk, the excuse being to argue her case. I for one will not be surprised when she is permitted to stay, which is inevitable.
Shamima Begum was born a British citizen under UK law as her father (despite having already left the UK) had indefinite leave to remain and so had the "settled in the United Kingdom" status that the British Nationality Act 1981 describes as being a satisfactory prerequisite to allow Begum to be born a British citizen.
So anyone born in Britain who goes to live abroad..commits a crime though not had a trial and found guilty..could be stripped of their british citizenship ? Does the woman hold a british passport ?
not if it makes the person stateless in her case the UKgov argued through her father she has Bangladesh citizenship, Bangladesh said no thanks!
