For the Appellant: Mr B Hawkin, instructed by Lillywhite Williams & Co Solicitors

              This is the re-making of the decision in the appellant's appeal, following the setting aside (in part), in a decision of 21 February 2024, of the decision of First-tier Tribunal Mulready in which she allowed the appellant's appeal against the decision to deprive him of his British nationality under section 40(3) of the British Nationality Act 1981.

              The Home Office also made enquiries to the solicitors of the appellant's brother, Betim Jonuzi, requesting contact details for the appellant. In an email of 15 July 2021 the appellant, in the name of Agim Jonuzi, provided his contact details to the Home Office.

              On 16 July 2021 a further investigation letter was issued to the appellant, again stating that it was considered that his genuine identity was Artan Onuzi born on 10 March 1972 in Kukes, Albania and requesting a response to the allegation and details of his true identity. The investigation letter was re-sent on 17 August 2021. The appellant did not respond to any of the letters.

              On 29 April 2021 Hatique Onuzi, whom the respondent believed to be the appellant's mother, applied for entry clearance to the UK and provided supporting documents which included a Family Certificate giving details of her two children Artan Onuzi and Betim Onuzi.
