Jhangur, of Whiteways Road, Sheffield, hit four other people with his car, amongst those were his own mother and sister. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moments later, he stepped out of the car and stabbed his brother-in-law, who had married his sister just hours earlier, in the back and head. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Police have described Mr Marriott as a \u2018good Samaritan\u2019 who had paid for his kindness with his life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The jury at Sheffield Crown Court today heard how Hassan Jhangur\u2019s father, Mohammed Jhangur, 57, tried to hide evidence by stashing a knife in the boot of his car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mohammed Jhangur was sentenced to six months in prison, suspended for two years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
During his sentencing remarks, Mr Justice Morris described Hassan Jhangur’s actions as a deliberate act of “hot-headed violence”, adding: “it is clear Chris was much loved and, what is more, a highly respected member of the wider local community.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr Marriott\u2019s family have said in a statement: \u201cTo all those who tried to help on 27 December 2023, both before the collision and afterwards, the world is a better place with people like you who go to help those in need, rather than look the other way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTo the many people who got in touch with us to express their condolences and show us their love \u2013 in words, flowers, meals, gifts and financial help. Thank you for not being silent when it\u2019s hard to know what to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTo our families and friends, who have loved and cared for us in so many different ways, life is sweeter with you in it \u2013 and we are so thankful for you all.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
