Summary The Pakistan-born boxing star urged people to stay united after the attack on Finsbury Park mosque
(Web Desk) – British boxing star Amir Khan has expressed his concerns after the Finsbury Park mosque terror attack. He said he fears for the lives of his family members and infant daughter in the wake of such Islamophobic incidents.
Awed with the incident, he said, “It could happen to me and my daughter because we are Muslim.”
He urged the Muslim and other communities in the country to remain united after expressing grief at the recent terror attacks in London and Manchester. “We all just have to stick together as this is only going to get worse,” he cautioned.
Khan was invited as a guest on “Good Morning Britain” where he mentioned that people are being killed for being Muslim. “(I fear) one day (while) walking my daughter down the street and someone comes with a car and runs me over because I m a Muslim,” he stated.
It should be mentioned that he got himself in trouble when his Range Rover got involved in a road collision with another car earlier this month. A group of men chased him down through Bolton streets afterwards and attacked him.
