- Urgent plea from Sara Sharif’s grandfather for suspects, including her father, to cooperate with Pakistani police.
- Police seek Urfan Sharif, partner, and brother for questioning in connection with Sara’s tragic death.
- Investigation reveals multiple injuries, raising urgency to uncover circumstances leading to Sara’s passing.
In a heart-wrenching turn of events, the grandfather of 10-year-old Sara Sharif has made a public plea, urging his son to cooperate with Pakistani police in their investigation into the young girl’s tragic death. Sara Sharif was found dead on August 10th, and her family members have become subjects of interest in the ongoing investigation. The authorities in Pakistan are currently seeking the arrest of Urfan Sharif, Sara’s father, who had traveled from the UK to Islamabad just before her untimely demise.
Urfan Sharif is not the only family member under scrutiny; his partner Beinash Batool and his brother Faisal Shahzad Malik are also wanted by the Pakistani police. Pakistani authorities collaborate with their counterparts in the UK to gather information.
Sara’s grandfather, Muhammad Sharif, aged 68, has implored his son and other family members to turn themselves in to the police, hoping for a resolution in this deeply distressing matter. Mr. Sharif revealed that Urfan had briefly visited the family’s home in Jhelum, Punjab province, before disappearing once again. What’s more, Sara’s grandfather expressed concerns over the repeated police raids affecting their family’s privacy.
The investigation has been challenging for the Pakistani police, who have referred to their efforts as “blind” in the search for Sara’s father, uncle, and stepmother. Reports suggesting that authorities are close to apprehending the suspects have been debunked as “fake news.” Despite these difficulties, the authorities are committed to unearthing the truth surrounding Sara’s tragic end.
Sara’s exact cause of death has not been definitively determined. A post-mortem examination has revealed that she had sustained multiple and extensive injuries. The injuries, as determined by Surrey Police, are likely to have been inflicted over an extended period of time. This revelation has intensified the urgency of the investigation, as law enforcement officers seek to piece together Sara’s life and circumstances leading up to her death.
Sara’s mother, Olga Sharif, is receiving support from specialized officers as she grapples loss of her daughter. Meanwhile, in the UK, Surrey Police are actively appealing for information that could shed light on the circumstances.
While Sara’s uncle, Imran Sharif, has been questioned by the police, he is not currently under arrest. Imran Sharif denied knowledge of Urfan and his family’s whereabouts. Asserting that he had learned about Sara’s fate through international media. According to Imran Sharif, Urfan had been deeply distressed during a brief visit home. He had expressed concerns that “they” were planning to take his children away from him. The term “they” was reportedly referring to British authorities. Imran Sharif’s account suggested that Sara’s fall at home, resulting in a broken neck, was a tragic accident.
As the investigation unfolds, legal experts believe that an extradition request from the UK to Pakistan is likely to be approved. Further underscoring the urgency of cooperation from all parties involved in this tragic case.
