Double Olympic gold medallist Mo Farah has revealed that he was detained by US border guards on suspicion of being a terrorist, despite showing them his two gold medals.
The 29-year-old runner, who was awarded a CBE in the New Year's Honours list, has said he was detained by authorities while entering the country this Christmas.
Farah moved to America last year, but despite his international fame he says he frequently gets stopped at customs because of his Somali origin.
He told the Sun on Sunday: "I couldn't believe it. Because of my Somali origin I get detained every time I come through US customs. This time I even got my medals out to show who I am, but they wouldn't have it."
Farah, who moved to Britain with his father when he was eight, even resorted to showing officials his Olympic medals in an attempt to prove who he was.
