A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder following a fatal collision on the A46 last month.

The 20-year-old man, of Leicester, was arrested this morning. He currently remains in police custody.

The arrest is in connection with a collision which happened at around 1.30am on Friday 11 February on the A46 just before the Six Hills junction and involved a silver Skoda Fabia which left the carriageway.

Two men, Saqib Hussain, 21, and Mohammed Hashim Ijazuddin, 21, both from Banbury, Oxfordshire, who were inside the car were pronounced dead at the scene.

Following initial enquiries, two other cars were reported to have been travelling in the area at the same time of the collision.
