Tyson’s UK ban

LONDON. — Former world heavyweight champion boxer Mike Tyson has been forced to cancel appearances in London after discovering he is banned from entering Britain. Tyson, a convicted rapist, had been scheduled to be in London this week as he continues a promotional tour for his new autobiography “Undisputed Truth”, which included a photocall with journalists and a book signing.

His publishers Waterstone said recent changes to British immigration laws meant he was unable to travel to the country and has been re-routed to Paris instead. Tweets on Tyson’s official Twitter account as recently suggest he was unaware of the changes. — AFP.
