Steven Sansom is allegedly one of the inmates responsible for the brutal attack on Urfan Sharif, the father of Sarah Mayhew. The incident, which involved the use of a tuna can lid, took place in their shared cell at HMP Belmarsh on New Year's Day. Sharif, who is currently serving a life sentence for the murder of his daughter, was left with cuts on his face and received medical treatment at the prison.
It has been reported that Sansom, who is serving time for the murder of Sarah Mayhew in 2024, is one of two men involved in the attack. Sarah Mayhew, who was only 10 years old at the time of her death, suffered years of torture at the hands of her father. Sansom had dismembered her body and scattered her remains around Croydon before being convicted and sentenced to prison.
This is not the first time Sansom has committed a heinous crime. In 1999, he was convicted of the murder of a cab driver on Christmas Eve. He had stabbed the driver in the throat and neck, stealing £25 before fleeing the scene. According to a source, there is talk among the inmates that Sansom was the one who attacked Sharif. The source also mentioned that another inmate, who is also a murderer, held the door shut during the attack.
It was just a few weeks ago that Sharif and his wife, Beinash Batool, were both sentenced for the murder of their daughter. Sara had suffered unimaginable abuse at the hands of her father and stepmother for at least two years. She had over 25 broken bones, burn marks from hot water, and human bite marks all over her body. Sources have stated that Sharif has a target on his back due to the severity of his crime.
HMP Belmarsh, a Category A prison, houses some of the most dangerous criminals in the country. Both Sharif and Sansom are among the notorious murderers serving time there. However, the prison has yet to comment on Sharif's condition or the details of the attack. The police are currently investigating the incident, and no arrests have been made. A spokesperson for the Prison Service stated that it would be inappropriate to comment further while the investigation is ongoing.
