Los Angeles, Aug 12 (IBNS): Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was detained by US immigration department officials at the Los Angeles airport on Friday.


Reacting to the detention, Khan tweeted: "I fully understand & respect security with the way the world is, but to be detained at US immigration every damn time really really su**s."

"The brighter side is while waiting caught some really nice Pokemons," he said on a lighter note.

Khan was earlier also detained at US airports in the past.

In 2012, he was detained  at the airport in New York while he was stopped at the Newark airport in 2009.

In 2009, he was reportedly detained as his name came up on a computer alert list.
