Dutch-Moroccan kickboxing star Badr Hari, 40, remains at the center of controversy following his recent arrest on suspicion of assault. Amsterdam police confirmed the arrest on Sunday after receiving a report about the alleged incident, though details remain scarce, and Hari was not apprehended at the scene.
Badr Hari Speaks Out on Assault
Hari’s legal team has strongly denied the accusations, labeling his arrest as unjust and part of a “witch hunt.” Supporters argue that the kickboxer is being unfairly targeted due to his high-profile status and past legal troubles. Critics, however, point to his history of violent incidents, including a 2012 conviction for assaulting businessman Koen Everink, as evidence of a troubling pattern.
