The England cricketer Monty Panesar was held by police and questioned after an alleged public argument with his wife, it has been reported.

Police arrested Panesar after a call from a member of the public who claimed to have seen him rowing with 28-year-old Gursharan Rattan in the car park of a Luton pub.

Bedfordshire police confirmed the arrest, saying that on January 22 a 29-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of common assault at a house in Luton and interviewed before being released without charge. No further action was taken.

The Luton-born left-arm spinner was arrested nearby at a relative's home following the incident in January.

Panesar married Gursharan at a traditional Sikh ceremony in February last year.

The couple spent their honeymoon in the US before moving to Hove in East Sussex as Panesar signed a three-year contract to move from Northamptonshire to Sussex.

A spokesman for Panesar told the News of the World: 'Monty said that, yes, he went to the police station but that nothing has come of it. He is surprised it has come out and has nothing else to add.

'The police picked him up and took him to the police station where he was interviewed. The matter is now closed.'
