Omar Choudhury and Hamidur Rahman have today both been sentenced to 14 years each for their irresponsible actions that led to the sad death of Alisha Goup in February.
Omar Choudhury of Broadway, Royton and Hamidur Rahman of Tilbury Street, Oldham have been found guilty of causing death by dangerous driving at Minshull Street Crown Court both receiving sentences of 14 years, serving two-thirds of that in custody.
In addition, they were both disqualified from driving for a minimum of 12 years.
This was after their irresponsible and catastrophic actions on the early afternoon (around 1:30pm) of Thursday 23 February 2023 resulted in 16-year-old Alisha Goup losing her life as she walked to Oldham Sixth Form College where she was a student.
Heading towards Oldham Town Centre along Rochdale Road, the tragic incident happened outside of the Coldhurst Community Park near to the junction of the Royal Oldham Hospital, which is busy main road with footpaths, bus stops, zebra crossing and residential and business properties.
Despite the best attempts of emergency services, Alisha was sadly pronounced deceased at the scene a short time later after the car, a BMW 3 series with the distinctive registration OM08 ARR, mounted the pavement and collided with her as she walked along the footpath, this was after hitting a white Ford Fiesta turning at the junction and losing control as he attempted to overtake on the wrong side of the road.
Evidential CCTV footage used by officers showed both Choudhury and Rahman racing through the streets of Oldham and overtaking cars on St Mary’s Way and Chadderton Way before heading along Rochdale Road where Rahman turned off onto Coldhurst Street. Rahman was also driving a BMW – a 1 series with the registration H21 MDR and wasn’t insured to drive this vehicle.
This was from an earlier threatening confrontation in public with a weapon believed to be a baseball bat before the fatal collision occurred, resulting in Choudhury reversing on the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic, mounting a pedestrian island before driving on the wrong side of the carriageway.
These erratic actions and excessive speed culminated in the road traffic collision involving Alisha. #uk #sentence #jail #subscribe #manchester

What a lovely pair of economic migrants…I wish the tanned lady a full & swift recovery 🙏
was there meant to be sound on this video?
This country has turned into an absolute sh*thole.
How awful
This is because the criminals know that they can get away by only few years behind bars. Bring in the capital punishment.
Bury it in the ground
Only 14 years, really??
RIP Alisha 🙏
