Driver who killed Nottingham student has sentence increased

The Court of Appeal judges also ordered that Gregory, of Westfield Road, Kirkby-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, be disqualified from driving for seven years and two months upon his release from prison.

Giving their judgement, Lord Justice Dingemans, sitting with Mr Justice Bryan and Judge Nigel Lickley KC, said the original sentence was “insufficient” and that Gregory’s dangerous driving was “prolonged, persistent and deliberate”.

Mr Jayasundera had been returning home from a birthday party with friends on 13 December last year when he was struck by a Ford Focus, which Gregory had taken from the garage he worked at without permission.

He was pursued by police after he was spotted swerving in Sherwood Rise at about 03:10 GMT, prosecutors said.
