Jihadi bride, Shamima Begum’s family has formally launched a court challenge against the British government’s decision to strip her of citizenship, arguing that other Britons that joined ISIS have been allowed back into the country.

Tasnime Akunjee, the lawyer representing Begum’s family, told The Guardian that revoking her citizenship and blocking her return to the UK violates her human rights.
