Weird Ways to Get British Citizenship, Part 42

This sounds like something out of the Tom Hanks' movie "The Terminal"....Sanjay Shah, outraged that the UK would not consider him to be a full citizen (he held a UK overseas citizen passport), decided to protest by living for 13 months in Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International Airport's duty-free section.

Maybe he got the idea from seeing the movie, or by reading about Merhan Karimi Nasseri, the gentleman living in Charles DeGaulle Airport since 1988. In any event, Mr Shah has been granted his wish to apply for full citizenship.
