Sara's family members have been charged with her murder.

The tragic death of 10-year-old Sara Sharif has resulted in three of her relatives being charged with her murder. Her father Urfan Sharif, 41, his partner Beinash Batool, 29, and Mr Sharif’s brother Faisal Malik, 28, all of Hammond Road, Woking, Surrey, have been charged by police and have also been charged with causing or allowing the death of a child.

Young Sara’s body was discovered at her home on August 10 and a post-mortem examination determined that she had sustained multiple and extensive injuries. The trio had fled to Pakistan the day before Sara was found dead, prompting an international manhunt. They finally returned on Wednesday evening after a month on the run and were arrested at Gatwick Airport after their flight landed from Dubai.

Following the arrests, Sara's mother Olga Sharif spoke to The Sun, expressing her relief that her daughter's killers had been detained after almost five weeks since her death. She said: ‘I am very happy that the police have made arrests. It is a huge relief and something I didn’t think would happen this quickly. I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders but there is still a long way to go before I feel closure. What is important now is that the police can investigate with no information being kept back or put to the side. This needs everyone to work together. I have had to wait a long time for this and I didn’t know if they would ever be able to investigate what happened to my daughter.’

The three suspects have been remanded in custody and will appear at Guildford Magistrates’ Court on Friday. Surrey Police said following their arrests: ‘Our thoughts remain with her and those affected by Sara’s death at this very difficult time. This has been an extremely fast-moving, challenging and complex enquiry and we remain absolutely committed to conducting a thorough investigation into Sara’s death.’

The tragic death of Sara Sharif has resulted in an investigation and criminal charges being laid against three of her relatives. The case is ongoing and the community hopes for justice to be served in the memory of Sara Sharif.
