Snowden should not be allowed to travel: US

June 24, 2013 09:17

The United States today asked countries not to allow American whistleblower Edward Snowden to proceed ahead with any other international travel except for coming back home.

Computer technician Snowden, who leaked the secretive internet and phone surveillance programmes of the US, is wanted in the United States of felony charges.

"As is routine and consistent with US regulations, persons with felony arrest warrants are subject to having their passport revoked. Such a revocation does not affect citizenship status," State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki said.
