Rapper Ghetts sentenced to 12 years for hit-and-run that killed Nepali student

British rapper Ghetts has been sentenced to 12 years in prison for killing a 20-year-old Nepali student in a London hit-and-run last year. Ghetts, whose real name is Justin Clarke-Samuel, was speeding and under the influence of alcohol as he drove erratically before the incident in October 2025, according to prosecutors. Clarke-Samuel, 41, was also barred from driving for 17 years on Tuesday by Judge Mark Lucraft, who said CCTV footage showed “a quite appalling litany of incidents” leading to a “simply shocking” fatal collision with student Yubin Tamang, who suffered catastrophic injuries and died two days later.
