Dual citizenship?
editCan anyone find a reliable source that the subject has Canadian citizenship? Note that as a refugee he may have been provided with a Refugee Travel Document by Passport Canada, so the mention of his Canadian "passport" expiring do not necessarily mean he is a citizen.

- And yes, I know the PNU claimed he was a Canadian citizen and provided a copy of what was supposedly his Canadian passport, but a report of what an opposing party claims is not a reliable source as to the veracity of the claim itself. Meters (talk) 05:06, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Correction, The gentleman isn't a Kenyan citizen, he is Canadian. Please execute this correction with haste. There are numerous court orders of competent jurisdiction that have said the same.Thanks in advance. 154.70.17.194 (talk) 18:29, 31 March 2018 (UTC)
- Done –Ammarpad (talk) 09:03, 1 April 2018 (UTC)
- The Daily Nation wrote in this article on February 7, 2018, that "Speaking moments after his deportation to Canada, where he is also a citizen, Mr Miguna promised his supporters that it was not over yet." The Voice of America reported in this article on March 29, 2018, that "He was stripped of his Kenyan passport before he was forced to leave the country, but also holds Canadian citizenship and is traveling on a Canadian passport." (Emphasis added.) Do we have any reliable sources that say he is not a citizen of Canada? We seem to have at least two cited sources that say that he is a Citizen of Canada. —BarrelProof (talk) 20:14, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

- I wouldn't object to also listing Kenyan, but I don't know enough about this contentious case to do it myself. Meters (talk) 03:10, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Citizenship yet again
editWe now have six sources in the infobox stating that the subject is a Canadian citizen, not just that he holds a Canadian passport. And yet new users are still showing up and removing the claim (along with the sources). I'm not familiar with all of the sources, but they appear to be reliable, and certainly there is no question that the BBC (two of the sources) is a WP:RS. Meters (talk) 21:55, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
Describing "torture" (and unlawful detention)
editThe article says "He was unlawfully detained at the airport incommunicado for three days, tortured and was forcibly returned to Dubai 2–3 days later." It does not say what was done to him that is being described by the word "torture". I think would be better to describe exactly what was done to him rather than to use the judgmental term "torture" (e.g., per MOS:LABEL). One of the two sources cited for that sentence is a dead link and the other one only says he was "being detained" without saying he was being tortured, and without saying that the detention was clearly unlawful. In addition to modifying the "tortured" aspect, I suggest removing the word "unlawfully" from that sentence. If I understand correctly, there are statements in the article that say the detention was later declared (by a court judgment) to have been unlawful, but I think it might be better to first just describe what actions took place and save the commentary about whether it was lawful until later in the article. — BarrelProof (talk) 18:51, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
