MJ’s kids in ‘£750k protection plan’

London: Michael Jackson’s children are reportedly under the shield of a team of bodyguards costing 750,000 pounds a year.

The youngsters, Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and seven-year-old Prince Michael II, aka Blanket, were placed under protection after fears they might be targeted by kidnappers or stalkers following the death of their father.

"Michael`s death has made them more of a target. They`ll be guarded like royalty," the Daily Express quoted a source as telling a news website.

The Jacksons were said to have come up with a protection plan for the children and hired six security men to guard them.

The men are allegedly trained to fight and deal with kidnap and hostage situations.
