A fundraising appeal has been established in honour of a man identified locally as one of two fatalities following a 100ft crash in Bradford.

Imath Uddin Choudhury, 23, has been named in a JustGiving campaign set up in his memory. The fundraiser states he passed away on Wednesday (July 1) after spending just over a week in hospital with severe injuries sustained in the collision.

Reports indicate an Audi A3 convertible veered off Hawksworth Road in Baildon, close to the Potter Brow Road junction, at approximately 7.24pm on Monday, June 22.

A 20 year old also lost their life at the scene. The 24-year-old driver was detained on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, while a 23-year-old passenger sustained minor injuries, West Yorkshire Police confirmed previously.

The fundraiser, initiated by the Grains Of Hope Foundation on JustGiving, had already exceeded its £2,000 goal by Wednesday, reports Yorkshire Live.

The foundation stated: "In memory of Imad, Grains of Hope Foundation is raising funds to support the most needy families in The Gambia and provide water pumps in Pakistan, helping those in need whilst creating a source of ongoing reward for him, by the will of Allah."

They continued: "May Allah forgive Imath Choudhury, grant him Jannatul Firdaus, widen and illuminate his grave, and make every donation a means of Sadaqah Jariyah for him. Ameen."
