An Indian-origin drunk-driver in the UK, who hit and killed three teenage boys as they walked to a birthday party in London, was handed down a 13-year jail term. Chudasama had pleaded guilty to charges of three counts of death by dangerous driving after the road collision that killed three teenage boys. Harry Rice, 17, George Wilkinson and Josh McGuinness, both 16, were instantly killed as they were hit by Chudasama’s speeding car. The legal limit for driving in the UK is 80 milligrams per 100 millilitres of blood. The grieving families are planning online petitions to demand the conviction be reconsidered and a charge of murder applied to the dangerous driving charge, which would involve a tougher sentence.
