Shot Brit had death threats

LEWIS Hamilton and celeb pal Will Smith pose for a selfie at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix yesterday.

The Hollywood star, 50, jokingly held the F1 driver, 33, hostage before the race and said he would take his place adding: “Listen, you black, I’m black, and nobody going to know the difference.”

World champion Hamilton went on to win. A BRITISH events promoter murdered in Cyprus was getting death threats, his family have revealed.

Gary Christodoulou, 33, was gunned down in Ayia Napa three weeks ago.

Sister Sofia, 27, said: “He told me he had received death threats for months.

“Gary was doing so well and people didn’t like it.”

Four Cypriots, have been arrested in connection with the murder of the dad-of-one from Walton, Liverpool, whose funeral is in his home city today.
