Two Indian-origin men, Hardeep Bhachu and Jasskamal Riyat, were sentenced to a combined 28 years in prison for dangerous driving that caused the deaths of Justyna Hulboj and her four-year-old daughter, Lena, in Leeds, England. The fatal crash occurred in January 2023 during a street race, with Bhachu pleading guilty and Riyat found guilty after a trial.
