Shamima Begum will never be allowed to enter Bangladesh

Saying that former ISIS wife Shamima Begum was never a citizen of Bangladesh, the government has said she would never be allowed to enter the country.

Bangladesh government's clear-cut stance is that British-born Shamima Begum was never Bangladeshi national and she has no right in this regard. So, she is not entitled to get entrance, the Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Tuesday. 

The handout said a news on Shamima Begum has drew attention of Foreign Ministry. It came to know by massmedia that she left the UK, aged 15, to join the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant in Syria. Following this, the UK government scrapped her citizenship.

Then she moved the country's High Court, and Special Immigration Appeals Commission against the decision but the courts rejected her plea and mentioned her as Bangladeshi citizen.
