(Local) The Swiss justice minister on Monday confirmed that the country was looking at revoking the passport of a Swiss citizen who fought for the so-called Islamic State (ISIS).
Speaking in the lower house of the Swiss parliament, Justice Minister Karin Keller-Sutter confirmed that one case was currently in process while several others were being considered.
The minister said that to date there had been no cases of ISIS fighters being stripped of their Swiss passport.
“But you can be certain that we will exhaust all of our powers when it comes to citizenship,” she said.
The minister went on to say that cases involving dual nationals would be given preference.
