Couple who fled motorway crash that killed schoolgirl won't have prison sentences increased

A couple who fled the scene of a motorway crash that saw a schoolgirl killed after being thrown from a car will not have time added to their prison sentences.

Hannah Jones and boyfriend Safeer Iqbal were involved in a collision on the M61 after Jones lost control of Iqbal's Vauxhall Corsa and hit Nissan Qashqai's vehicle in July 2019, reports the Manchester Evening News.

As a result, Sana Patel, aged 12 was thrown from the family car and suffered fatal injuries, being pronounced dead at the scene of the horrific collision. But as the young girl lay dying, Jones and Iqbal called a taxi to return to West Yorkshire.
