The UK Border Agency has confirmed that Mrs Assad is British.<br /> <br /> &quot;British citizens subject to EU travel bans cannot be refused entry to the UK,&quot; a spokesman said.<br /> <br /> Mrs Assad, who worked as an investment banker in the City of London before her marriage in 2000, has generally played a low-key role in the regime.<br /> <br /> The BBC's Caroline Hawley looks at Asma Assad's UK roots<br /> <br /> However, in February she wrote to Britain's Times newspaper to explain why she thought her husband was still the right man to lead Syria.<br /> <br /> Other members of Mr Assad's family have also been added to the sanctions list. The AFP news agency says these include Mr Assad's mother, sister and sister-in-law.</div>
