Sufyan Kamal, who lost his UK citizenship after fighting in Syria, says he's been unfairly treated.
Sufyan Mostafa Kamal says he "never broke any international law, nor took part in any attacks against civilians" during his time in Syria
Mr Kamal, who is from London, was stripped of his UK passport after travelling to Syria to fight against President Assad's regime.Mr Kamal told the BBC: "The reasons they gave is that they suspect I have been involved in terrorist activity during my stay in Syria. I strongly deny these accusations. Daniel Furner, a solicitor acting on Mr Kamal's behalf, said his client had appealed against the decision and the case was currently "pending".In 2021, Mr Kamal was returned to Turkey before being put on a flight to the UK. The flight transited in Amsterdam, where he was arrested and sent to the Nieuw Vosseveld high-security prison in Vught.
"I believed in the Syrian revolution and I believed as a person with an Arabic background that it was my duty to be a part of it. It never occurred to me that I would be labelled as a terrorist for just being there.
