Moment Leicester City player Hamza Choudhury is pulled over for drink-driving
Leicester City star Hamza Choudhury has been fined £20,000 after a court heard he was caught drink-driving on the wrong side of the road in his wife’s Range Rover.
Nottingham Magistrates’ Court was told the 26-year-old made the “impulsive and spontaneous” decision to drive back to a restaurant to collect his phone despite being more than double the legal alcohol limit in the early hours.
Choudhury, a married father of three young children, realised he had “let himself and his family down,” his lawyer said.
The court was shown police dashcam footage of a traffic patrol activating blue lights and passing through red lights behind Choudhury, who did not pass any red signals himself.
