Couple who ran away from scene of M61 crash as schoolgirl lay dying will not have prison sentences increased
A couple who fled the scene of an M61 crash that saw a schoolgirl thrown from her family car and killed will not have their prison sentences increased.
And as she lay dying, Jones and her boyfriend Safeer Iqbal called a taxi to take them back to West Yorkshire. During a trial at Preston Crown Court, it emerged the couple had been at a party on the night of the collision, LancsLive reports.Iqbal had been drinking so Jones offered to drive his car home even though she was not insured on the vehicle. Other motorists on the M61 described the Corsa being driven erratically at speeds of up to 90mph shortly before the crash, near Chorley.
Jones was convicted of causing Sana's death by careless driving, and both defendants were convicted of perverting the course of justice after it emerged they lied about who was responsible during the investigation into the collision. The case was referred to the Attorney General to be considered under the unduly lenient sentence scheme. If the case had been accepted it would have been referred to the Court of Appeal to determine whether the sentence imposed should be increased.
