Kevin Federline was the aim of a possible murder plan earlier this year.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) received imprecise, unconfirmed allegations regarding a threat to the 29-year-old backing dancer’s life in June.

Laura Eimiller, FBI representative stated, “The FBI received nonspecific, uncorroborated allegations regarding a threat against Kevin Federline.”

As the case was not a federal issue, the FBI passed on the information to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD).

The police department probed the threat, but closed the case due to insufficient evidence.

LAPD spokeswoman Norma Eisenman said: "We do not have any current investigation pending regarding threats made against Kevin Federline."

In the meantime, Kevin is presently embroiled in a court clash with ex-wife Britney Spears over the guardianship of their two children, Sean Preston, two, and one-year-old Jayden James.

The couple was originally granted joint custody of their children, but Kevin states Britney’s recent changeable behaviour shows she is not a fit mother and wants primary care of the children.
