You then used a mobile phone to make a Snapchat recording of your driving, with the phone in one hand and inhaling the balloons with the other.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;At one stage you slumped onto the steering wheel causing the car to veer off to the left. The Snapchat recording later examined showed that you reach speeds of 98mph in a 40mph limited area.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Nadia Yusuf lost her life in the collision caused by your driving.

Your other passenger, Shafi Sufi, sustained extremely serious injuries with lasting effects.

She was studying Health and Social Care and was working to become a paediatrician.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;With her passion and determination, there was no doubt she was well on her way to achieve any goal that she put her mind to.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Unfortunately, at the age of 17, she was taken from us by Rohail&#8217;s reckless actions that could have been prevented and that has left a hole in our family which can never be repaired.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Although no amount of time behind bars will bring Nadia back or be enough, we have hope that the justice system will prevail and kickstart our healing process. We will miss beautiful Nadia forever. Nadia was not only physically beautiful but she had an equally beautiful heart.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Det Con Oliver Batty, of Greater Manchester Police said: &#8216;Jillani&#8217;s actions were reckless and dangerous and have ultimately resulted in a young woman losing her life. He chose, through his own volition, to use nitrous oxide, drive at excessive speeds and film himself in the moments that preceded this fatal collision.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The sentence passed reflects the utter disregard that Jillani had for his passengers and the rules of the road that we, as the public, have to adhere to, day in and day out, to keep each other safe.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Jillani chose, through his own volition, to use nitrous oxide, drive at excessive speeds and film himself in the moments that preceded this fatal collision and I hope the sentence today brings some closure to Nadia&#8217;s family.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in court, defence counsel Michael Lavery said Jillani came from a &#8216;decent&#8217;
