He was seen driving recklessly, overtaking cars on the wrong side of the road
A man who was said to have a 'fascination' with 'high powered and fast cars' killed a woman by slamming his Mercedes into her as she crossed the road. Mohammed Chowdhury was sentenced to five years and six months in prison after his manner of driving cost her life.
Prosecutors say at this point Mrs Ikponnmwen felt it safe to cross but she was struck by the vehicle at high speed and suffered fatal injuries and died that evening. Chowdhury, 22, was said to be reaching speeds of up to 80mph and was on the phone while driving. The court heard Chowdhury had a 'fascination’ with ‘high powered and fast cars’ since he was a teenager. He had access to such vehicles, including the Mercedes, through a family business.
Mr Nawaz referenced Chowdhury's no prior convictions as he wept in the dock throughout the hearing in court.
