The page states that money raised will go to build wells in a part of the world where water is scarce in accordance with the Muslim tradition of Sadaqah Jariyah or ongoing charity.

The man who set up the page, Haris Nazir, who was a friend of Naveed's, said he was a 'kind and loving character to everyone' who had a 'big impact on those around him'.

"It is now our duty to make Sadaqah Jariyah for him as he is no longer in this world," he added.

Police are investigating the crash which happened at around 3.44am and are appealing for witnesses.

Anyone with information about the crash, or anyone with dash cam footage, should call 101 quoting incident 151 of May 19, 2018.
