Bradford man died from alcohol after being left in car

The inquest heard that at no stage was Mr Aziz put under pressure or duress to drink alcohol, was not egged on, and that there was no “drinking game” taking place.

A cause of death was given as acute alcohol intoxication.

Mr Fleming said it could not be conclusively ascertained whether Mr Aziz would have survived if medical attention had been sought earlier.

He said it was more than likely that Mr Aziz, who had a history of binge drinking, had misjudged the toxicity of the brandy, with fatal consequences.

Mr Aziz’s father Mohabbat was at the hearing along with other family members, including Mr Aziz’s wife.

Addressing the family, the coroner said: “To lose a beloved son, a husband, a father to four children under these unexpected circumstances must be so very hard to bear.”
