LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM – A drunk driver was jailed in the United Kingdom for killing two people after he sped down a highway while masturbating, a British court heard Monday.

Imran Hussain, 32, was driving his powerful 4×4 Audi Q7 car at speeds of up to 120 mph (193 km/h) while he was twice over the legal alcohol limit when he ploughed into the back of a car carrying a 47-year-old man and his wife and son.

Manchester Crown Court heard that motorists who came to Hussain’s aid afterwards saw that his penis was partially exposed, the Press Association reported.

“At the least it must have been a symptom you were not giving your full attention to driving,” said Judge Andrew Blake.

The court was told that Hussain had argued with his wife hours before the crash in August, and had gone out drinking with friends as well as visiting a lap-dancing club.

CCTV footage caught him staggering to the counter at a petrol station where he threatened to kill the cashier.

Prosecutor Andrew Nuttall said police had examined his mobile phone and discovered that he had called an escort agency less than 30 minutes before the smash but it had been closed.

Christian Downard, one of those who had alerted police, went with two friends to Hussain’s aid. He saw that Hussain’s semi-erect penis was out of his trousers.

“His attempts to contact the agency and the finding of him with an erect penis out of his trousers indicates that he was sexually excited and clearly handling his penis whilst he was driving and at the time of the collision,” Nuttall said.

Headed to US

The fatal crash killed Gary Proctor, 47, and his 16-year-old son James.

Catherine Proctor, 44, the victims’ wife and mother who was in the car at the time, said the family had been heading to the airport to go on a holiday to New York and Florida.

“No words or sentence will ever describe the devastation that we feel,” Catherine said in a statement. “No one should ever go through the nightmare I have suffered over the last four months.”

Hussain, from Bradford, was jailed for eight years after admitting two counts of causing death by dangerous driving and one charge of driving with excess alcohol.

He was also banned from driving for 15 years.
