Judicial review claim in which the Claimant sought an order quashing a decision to declare null and void the grant to him of British citizenship. That decision was taken by the Defendant on the basis that in and after 2001, when he arrived in the UK and claimed asylum, the Claimant deceived the Defendant by pretending to be someone he was not, and in particular by giving a false place of birth; and that the Defendant granted him leave to remain and in due course citizenship in reliance on the false information. In consequence, the Defendant determined, citizenship had never in law been granted to the Claimant.
