Rapper Ghetts admits causing death by dangerous driving

The rapper Ghetts has pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving following a hit-and-run collision in east London.
The award-winning musician, whose real name is Justin Clarke-Samuel, failed to stop after his BMW hit 20-year-old Yubin Tamang on Redbridge Lane, Ilford on 18 October.
Mr Clarke-Samuel, from Woodford, east London, was initially charged with a single count of causing Mr Tamang’s death by dangerous driving.
It is alleged Mr Clarke-Samuel was driving dangerously in Tavistock Place and other roads in Camden, north London.
The court previously heard that following the collision with Mr Tamang in Ilford at about 23:30 GMT, Mr Clarke-Samuel continued to drive dangerously in Worcester Crescent, Redbridge, on the journey back to his home in Woodford.
Police attended the defendant’s address in Woodford early the next day.
The black BMW, registered and insured in the defendant’s name, was said to have been significantly damaged.
