British boxing legend Amir Khan (39) appeared in court on charges of illegally filming sexual encounters and threatening victims.

The UK's "The Sun" reported on the 31st (Korea time) that "Khan and his wife Parvati Malik submitted a 21-page legal brief to London's High Court, detailing specific criminal allegations against the couple, filed by lawyer Parvati Husain, who had previously sued them for defamation."

According to media reports, Khan and his wife filed a defamation lawsuit in 2023 seeking up to 100,000 pounds (approximately 200 million won) in damages after Husain raised allegations of their illegal filming and extortion during a podcast broadcast. The couple has consistently denied the claims, calling them malicious falsehoods.

However, documents submitted to the court by Husain's side detail Khan's inappropriate conduct. According to the filings, Khan sent nude photos unilaterally to multiple women via social media (SNS). In one instance, after secretly filming an intimate encounter with a woman, he made threatening phone calls to her, warning that "my reality show would be jeopardized if the public found out." His wife, Malik, was also found to have directly threatened the victims.

Additionally, Khan allegedly attempted to bribe another woman he had been in contact with in 2023, offering her 20,000 pounds (approximately 40 million won). He also faces accusations of habitually sending private questions about her body and sexually explicit messages late at night.

Husain's legal representative stated, "The defendants revealed the truth for public safety and gained no financial benefit whatsoever," directly refuting the requirements for defamation. If the trial proceeds, Khan and his wife are highly likely to be required to appear in court as witnesses and undergo questioning.

Khan, a silver medalist at the 2004 Athens Olympics, retired from professional boxing in 2022. Although he married Malik in 2013, the couple faced a marital crisis in September 2017 when it was revealed that Khan had cheated with nine women, but they later reconciled. The father of three children publicly declared last year that he would seek treatment to break his habit of sending sexual messages to women.
