British boxing star Amir Khan and his wife Faryal Makhdoom will see matters in court after denying sex tape and blackmail allegations by women’s rights activist Faaryal Hussain.

Khan has filed for defamation against Hussain and wants up to £100,000 (approx Rs 128 crore) in damages after being accused by her of filming himself while having sex with a woman and then threatening her. Khan, 39, is also alleged to have shared naked photos with four other women. Two of the women involved with Khan have allegedly become depressed after their interactions with the boxer. One of them even said she was left ‘suicidal’ after being threatened by Khan.
