TikTok influencer Mahek Bukhari and her mother jailed for life for double murder after sex tape threat
TikTok influencer Mahek Bukhari and her mother have both been jailed for life for double murder following a sex tape threat.
Bukhari sobbed in the dock last month as she was found guilty of murdering her mother's lover and his friend in a high-speed car chase.
Her mother Ansreen Bukhari, 46, was also found guilty of the murders following a trial at Leicester Crown Court.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Bukhari sobbed in the dock last month as she was found guilty of murdering her mother's lover and his friend in a high-speed car chase.
Saqib Hussain and Mohammed Hashim Ijazuddin, both 21, died when their Skoda "virtually split in two" and caught fire after leaving the A46 dual carriageway near Leicester before hitting a tree in the early hours of 11 February 2022.
During sentencing, Judge Timothy Spencer KC said TikTok and Instagram were "at the heart" of the case, as Bukhari dropped out of university to pursue her career as an influencer.
The judge added Ansreen had made the "calamitous" decision of putting the response to the sex tape threat against her in her daughter's hands.
Leicestershire Police's senior investigating officer for the case, Detective Inspector Mark Parish, said: "This was a callous and cold-blooded attack which ultimately cost two men their lives.
"As the defendants found guilty were arrested, charged and stood trial before a court, lies were continually told in order to try and cover their tracks.
