The family of a father-of-two have spoken of their anger after the man whose careless driving killed him was jailed for just nine months.
Asylum seeker Delshad Aziz should not have been on the road when he pulled across a junction in a borrowed van.
Anthony Edney, 44, died from a ruptured aorta hours after his scooter hit the van at a busy road junction in Hove.
Aziz, 28, had no driving license and no insurance and was living on benefits in Britain while he appealed a decision not to grant him asylum.
Yesterday he was jailed for nine months and banned from driving for three years after admitting causing death by careless driving.
The victim’s wife Maria Edney, 40, of Thornhill Rise, Portslade, said: “I am angry. “Nine months is nothing for my husband's life.
“He won't even serve the full nine months and will only do half of that before he is released. It feels to me that he has got nothing.”
