UPDATE: Muslim 'role model' Khan defended

11:09am Tuesday 25th March 2008


Bolton boxer Amir Khan was hailed as a "wonderful role model" for British Muslims in a rebuke to a radical preacher who criticised him for wearing the Union Flag.

Exiled preacher Omar Bakri Mohammad told The Sun the boxer was committing a sin and set a bad example to Muslims for showing allegiance to the British flag.

His comments were branded "bizarre" by the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB).
