[ToasterThief]

- Mahdi Hashi is thought to be in prison in the African state of Djibouti

- While he was visiting Somalia, Theresa May deprived him of all his rights as a British national

- He was accused of extremist activities but his parents say this is wrong

- After landing at Heathrow, he was approached by MI5 who said his 'suspect status' would be cleared if he 'co-operated' with them

Regardless of whether or not this kid committed the crimes he's accused of, the power of the government to strip one of their citizenship is a new development and one we should all give thought to. How British are we really? We place a lot of value and trust in our passports and British citizenship to safe us in case we need rescuing whilst abroad, will you feel different?

[Ibtisam]

Interesting developments.

 

I hope he is well and coping where ever he is.

So I've heard that the UK took drastic measures post 9/11 and one of them was the ability to "strip" people of their citizenship. I'm wondering is it only the immigrants (first generation/second generation?) that they can disenfranchise? Basically, how far does it go?

^Only those they could deport to third country I would imagine,

Why blame UK, I would do the same thing if I was in charge. Do you think that Somalia should allow a Yemeni origin who obtained Somali citizenship to keep that when he supported those who killed guests and students at a graduation ceremony, a market...etc? SOLers, these guys are not a joke. They would kill or harm most of us over here, accusing us of being spy...etc.

Waa runtaa Apo, waxbaa jira, I knew this kid since he was 9. Smart and polite, but sadly way ka wareertay when he became a teenager. Waalidku weligoodbba waa waalid, they will always be on your side regardless.

[Abwaan]

Haatu, no need for Cusbo. And I have never said I know every Faarax, neither did I say that the speaker was my neighbour ee beenta naga kala yaree. And why dhib kuugu haysaa if Abwaan knows this Young man, orod dadka baro ma anigaa kuu diidan intaad drum-ta iyo shiishada iska yareysid. Sidaas war iigama soo saareysid.

[OdaySomali]

Someone post a link to the telegraphs version of the story... very different. im not suprised that the daily fail has spun the story it the way it has.
