A chilling true crime documentary special titled TikTok: The Mother & Daughter Killers is now streaming on Prime Video, delving into a deadly chain of events that shook the UK. The one-off special examines a fatal car crash in Leicestershire and the horrifying 999 call that sparked a murder investigation.
The Fatal Crash and Chilling 999 Call
The documentary takes viewers to the moment two young men, Hashim Ijazuddin and Saqib Hussain, were killed in a car crash on a dark Leicestershire road. However, a chilling 999 call made by Saqib moments before the crash quickly turned the tragic collision into a murder investigation. Detectives retraced the victims' final steps and made a startling discovery that led them into the world of social media influencer Mahek Bukhar.
Behind the Social Media Persona
Mahek Bukhar was a rising TikTok star, and her mother Ansreen supported her influencing dreams. According to the BBC, Mahek often boasted about her close relationship with her mother, who regularly appeared in her online videos. But behind the screen, they were hiding a dark reality. Ansreen had been having a secret affair with 21-year-old Saqib Hussain, and when the relationship soured, blackmail and deceit ensued.
The Unraveling of a Deadly Plot
What first appeared to be a tragic collision soon unraveled into allegations of blackmail, secrecy, and a hidden affair that investigators believe set a deadly chain of events into motion. The documentary reveals that Mahek Bukhari and her mother Ansreen killed the two 21-year-olds to prevent Saqib from revealing the affair. The synopsis states: 'A double fatal car crash involving Hashim Ijazuddin and Saqib Hussain on a dark road in Leicestershire sparks a major murder investigation after Saqib makes a chilling 999 call moments before their vehicle is forced off the road.'
