Popular boxer, Amir Khan has come out to say that his removal from an American Airlines flight in the United States was racially motivated. He recently revealed this while speaking with the press and the world has been reacting.
According to him, the allegations against him are very false and he and his colleague were picked on because they were 2 Asian boys.
Khan added that no matter what anyone says about his stance, he’ll stand by his words.
His words, “Definitely definitely. I’m going to stand by that. It was 9/11 a week before that, then having two Asian boys sat at the front … I hope I’m wrong. But I had done nothing wrong. I got kicked off a plane for no reason and it was embarrassing for us.”
“I just feel I was treated really badly. It was a week after 9/11, I do feel things were a bit tense, but to be picked on, two Asian boys sat at he front, being pulled out in front of a full plane. It’s quite embarrassing really.”
WOW.
