Begg, who launched judicial review after having application rejected last year, is told he can now apply for passport
A former Guantánamo Bay detainee has been told he can once again obtain a British passport after the document was taken from him eight years ago following two trips to Syria.
Moazzam Begg’s application for a new passport was rejected in September 2021, even though a terrorism prosecution relating to his time in Syria collapsed in 2014, after which police said they accepted he was innocent.
