Victim of crash that killed six had been released from jail for 130mph police chase

Kasar Jehangir, one of three men who died when their Audi hit a taxi, had recently been released from prison for reckless driving



A VICTIM of the crash that killed six was recently freed from jail after being caught in a 130mph police chase.

Kasar Jehangir, 25, was one of three men who died when their high-powered car hit a taxi, neighbours said yesterday.

The Audi S3 careered head-on into the black minivan on a stretch of dual carriageway used as a late-night “drag track” by “boy racers”.

Jehangir was sentenced to 36 months last November, after admitting driving dangerously and possessing drugs with intent to supply.

He died when he was thrown from the Audi with Mohammed Fahsa, 30, and Tauqeer Hussain, 26. It is believed Kasar was a passenger.

Witnesses said the car had earlier been doing speeds of up to 100mph.

It careered across a central reservation in an underpass in Edgbaston, Birmingham, at 1am on Sunday.

Taxi driver Imtiaz Mohammed, 33, and two passengers also died.
