The crash – involving a red Seat Leon and Masrob’s Citroen C4 Picasso – took place on Wigan Road in Deane at 12:45am.

Both drivers were killed and two passengers travelling in the Seat were also fatally injured – as residents recalled hearing a “loud bang”.

Shocking footage from a nearby home shows the head-on collision between the two cars on the quiet residential road.

Masrob’s daughter, Humayra, 29, told the BBC that her family were “devastated” describing him as “just a really good man”.
