A mum high on nitrous oxide killed her passenger after crashing into a wall at a roundabout at speed. Nasrin Saleh, 26, was sentenced today after pleading guilty at an earlier hearing to causing the death of Luqman Mehboob by dangerous driving on October 10, 2021.

Mr Begum saw the Volkswagen drive off with Mr Mehboob still behind the wheel. The
