Court delays Khan speeding verdict
The fate of boxer Amir Khan has been put on hold after a court adjourned his speeding offences trial.
It was alleged that the Olympic silver medalist was clocked driving at 140mph along the M62 motorway near Rochdale, Greater Manchester, last New Year's Eve.
But the hearing at Rochdale Magistrates' Court was adjourned following legal argument.
Khan, 20, from Bolton denies the speeding charge.
He is also charged with failing to produce his driving licence and proof of insurance after being stopped in his BMW 360i convertible.
Khan's barrister, Phillip Lucas, raised a number of legal matters and District Judge Andrew Meachin adjourned the case until October 26.
Khan did not attend court, but was ordered to attend the next hearing in the Autumn.
The young boxer shot to fame in 2004 when he won a silver medal at the Olympic Games in Athens.
He has since turned professional and remains unbeaten in the ring as a pro.
