A global music star who is an ambassador of an anti-violence charity founded by King Charles has been filmed slapping and assaulting a band member.
The shocking footage shows Pakistani folk singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan – an ambassador for the King's British Asian Trust which tackles domestic violence – attacking a backing singer on a US tour.
Khan, 49, who has eight million followers on social media, rained blows on the man with a slipper and dragged him around by his hair during the brutal attack at a hotel in Houston, Texas, last year. Last night he admitted the assault, saying: 'He was my student and I hit him. He has no objection.'
The video, sent to The Mail on Sunday, will cause shockwaves across the Indian subcontinent and Britain's Asian community and embarrass the British Asian Trust, which helps domestic violence victims and runs mental health initiatives across India and Pakistan.
Khan has performed to packed arenas in the UK and around the world. At a sold-out show at Wembley, he was joined on stage by London Mayor Sadiq Khan who called him 'brother'.
Khan has met the King several times as ambassador to the British Asian Trust. It was founded by Charles in 2007 to tackle poverty and build community relations. Khan's vocals were used in Mel Gibson's 2007 movie Apocalypto and he contributed to the soundtrack of 1995 film Dead Man Walking. He made his Hollywood acting debut in What's Love Got To Do With It?, starring Lily James, in 2022. The film was directed by his friend Jemima Khan, ex-wife of former Pakistan Premier Imran Khan.

Pakistani: Oh, then that explains it.
Many Pakis (not all) are known for having a short fuse and a long memory.
It is significant that he was said to have beaten that band mate with his slipper. In their culture, you hit someone with your shoe if you see that person as being low, crude and vulgar.
>> Dude needs to go smoke weed like American band members do
Maybe this devil-worshiping “Dude” graduated from weed to Paki hashish.
If you think cannabis fosters peace, look up the origin of the word “assassin”.
Yes I know.
We should give that bandmate a Louisville slugger and tell him to hit back the “American Way”.
The band member played the wrong note?
When Branford Marsalis didn’t know what key the song was in, Sting put it on the album!

And I thought Buddy Rich was tough on his bandmates.
Back when I taught marketing, one of the cardinal rules was never use a celebrity spokesperson unless you ran a complete top secret vetting, and then don’t do it anyway, there will always come a point where they will or will have done something stupid that will affect your brand.
The subservient guy needs some Texans to show him how life is to lived.
Back in the day, an English nobleman traveling in the Old West met a Texas cowboy on the trail. The Englishman asked, “Where might I find your master?” The cowboy replied, “the sob hasn’t been born yet!”
He has no objection? Somehow I doubt that.
Psychologists tend to be mentally unbalanced.
Mechanics drive the worst conditioned cars.
Doctors tend to be of ill health.
Peace activists tend to be violent.
Every “hero” of the leftists is a pervert, Chomo, rapist, satanist, sexual deviant, cop killer, or murderer.
Michael “Martin Luther” King Jr. - Violent womanizer, racist, communist, and plagiarist
Joe Biden. Chomo, daughter molester (By her own words) sexual assaulter.
Bill Clinton, Ted Kennedy. Womanizer, pervert, adulterer.
Ghandi. Chomo pervert.
Dali Lama. Chomo homosexual I
Mumia Abu Jamal. Cop Killer.
I could go on for pages...l
That’s a huge insult in that part of the world.

Bad behavior.
That is a sweet jacket. I bet it is so soft.
It’s good to be the King’s ambassador ,LOL
Wonder if King Charles gets his 10% too.
The bandmate lost some little bottle of holy water.
