A social media influencer from Stoke-on-Trent and her mother have been found guilty of murdering two men in February 2022.

Saqib Hussain and Hashim Ijazuddin, both 21, died when their car was rammed off the A46 in Leicester.

Mahek Bukhari, 24 from Tunstall, her mother, 46, and two others were convicted of murder by a jury at Leicester Crown Court.

During a three-month trial, the jury heard how Mahek "set a trap" that led Mr Hussain to being chased and rammed off the road.
