[EpochTimes] The father of the ISIS bride who left her Alabama home to travel to Syria has filed a lawsuit challenging the decision by the U.S. secretary of state and President Trump to block her return.Hoda Muthana, 24, is alleged to have been a prominent online agitator for ISIS, marrying three members of the terrorist organization after she traveled to Syria in 2014.
Tracked down by media in a refugee camp a few days ago, now with an 18-month-old son, she expressed her wish to return to the United States, stirring controversy.
On Feb. 20 the United States said she won’t be allowed back into the country.
A civil complaint filed by her father Ahmed Ali Muthana on Feb. 21, claims that his daughter’s right to citizenship cannot be unilaterally revoked‐citizenship that does not exist, according to an earlier statement by Mike Pompeo.
According to the Guardian, Hoda Muthana was the only woman to travel from America out of the estimated 1,500 people in the same camp (estimated to hold nearly 40,000) who traveled from Western nations, predominantly Europe.
She left the country in 2014 to join ISIS, the Islamist terrorist group.
