Former world champion boxer Amir Khan and his wife were held up for a robbery in east London, and three men have now been detained.

The 35-year-old wrote on Twitter in April that two guys snatched his £72,000 watch as a gun was “pointed in my face” on High Road in Leyton.

Officers “investigating a gunpoint street robbery in Leyton,” according to the Met, have made three arrests.

The three men, who are 25, 24, and 20, are being detained on robbery suspicion.

The Bolton resident who won a silver medal in the 2008 Olympics added, “the main thing is we’re both safe.”
