Rida Kazem was speeding at 110mph before losing control of his car, crashing and killing a woman.

By Aurelia Foster & PA MediaA driver jailed for killing a mother while "showing off" at speeds of up to 110mph in his car has had his sentence increased by the Court of Appeal.

The driver of the Tesla, hit by Kazem's car, was also hurt, with 25 fragments of glass needing to be removed from his eyes.He had been driving the two women home from a night out in the early hours of 22 August last year. At a hearing in central London, Joel Smith, for the Attorney General's Office said the sentencing judge's approach to calculating Kazem's jail term was "inadequate".

Solicitor David Rhodes, for Kazem, said the sentence was not unduly lenient. "It was lenient but justly so," he said.
