In a landmark ruling, a New Zealand court has ruled that not allowing 16 and 17-year-olds to cast their vote amounted to age discrimination. The court observed that protection against age discrimination in New Zealand begins at 16 and thus choosing 18 as the voting age showed discrimination.

In a landmark ruling, a New Zealand court has ruled that not allowing 16 and 17-year-olds to cast their vote amounted to age discrimination. The court observed that protection against age discrimination in New Zealand begins at 16 and thus choosing 18 as the voting age showed discrimination. Hours after the ruling, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the Kiwi lawmakers will have to take a vote to decide whether the voting age should be lowered or not. “It is our view that this is an issue best placed to parliament for everyone to have their say,” said Ardern. If New Zealand does manage to lower the voting age, it would join the likes of Austria, Malta, Brazil, Cuba and Ecuador where suffrage is granted to those 16 and above.

However, any change made regarding the rules will not be applicable until after next year's general election. Read more: After 'cattle fart' tax, NZ authorities suggest Halloween 'lollipop tax'.

According to the campaigners, Monday's decision was the culmination of a two-year case that the group fought - demanding that young voters be given the power to decide their future by voting on issues such as climate change, pandemic recovery decisions and more. “This is history. The government and parliament cannot ignore such a clear legal and moral message. They must let us vote," said Caeden Tipler, co-director of the Make It 16 campaign.

Dubbed an "IS bride," her request to come to the UK&nbsp;was denied by the&nbsp;Supreme Court last year to fight a case for her citizenship against the Home Office.&nbsp;

Begum's lawyer told AFP&nbsp;that the hearing would be centred around Begum being considered a victim&nbsp;of trafficking.&nbsp;

Further, a book published by Richard Kerbaj, claimed that Begum and her friends were taken to Syria by a man who was also leaking information to Canadian security services.&nbsp;

Maya Foa, director of the human rights group Reprieve claimed that Begum was "groomed online as a child and taken to Syria by a Canadian spy."

The group told AFP that currently, 20-25 British families including over 30 children are still in the camps suspected of being related to Syrian fighters.&nbsp;

According to reports, some 900 people are estimated to have travelled from the UK to Syria and Iraq to join the IS group.&nbsp;
