A motorcycle champion has been arrested at Heathrow airport over the death of his wife on their honeymoon in Dubai.

Father-of-three Sean Emmett, 43, was held by officers as he stepped off a plane as police probed the circumstances surrounding how Abbie Emmettt plunged to her death from their hotel room in Dubai.

She was killed just days after the newly-weds had arrived in the United Arab Emirates following their wedding in Cape Town, South Africa, in February.

Dubai authorities had investigated the 27-year-old's death, but found no suspicious circumstances and believed it to be a suicide leap from a window.

Mr Emmett, now a retired professional MotoGP rider, was quoted in the media at the time as saying: "I did not kill my wife – it was an accident."
