Grandfather and uncles of Sara Sharif arrested by Pakistani police

The family members of Sara Sharif‘s dad have been taken by the police in Pakistan for asking them some questions.

Sara’s dad, Urfan Sharif, who is 41 years old, and his partner Beinash Batool, who is 29 years old, left the UK for Pakistan after Sara was discovered dead and by herself at their house in Woking, Surrey, on August 10.

A body examination showed that she had many injuries that were severe and happened for a long time.

A spokesperson from the police in Jehlum, which is a city 108 miles north-west of Lahore, said that Sharif and his wife, Batool, are hiding. The police have also taken 10 of their close relatives into custody for questioning as part of an investigation.

According to the spokesperson, Mohammad Sharif, who is Urfan’s father, along with his brothers and cousins, were among the people who were arrested.

Police in Pakistan frequently arrest the family members of wanted suspects. However, they are not put in jail to prevent a court from getting involved.

On Wednesday, Sara’s stepmother talked to the public for the first time since the little girl was discovered dead.

In a video shared online by Sky, Batool calmly refers to Sara’s death as an “event” and says that she and Sharif are ready to help UK authorities with the situation.

Sharif and Batool, along with their five children, who are between the ages of one and 13, have left Britain. Surrey Police is interested in talking to them about Sara’s death.

Sara’s mom, Olga Sharif, recently talked to a Polish TV show called Uwaga. She shared about the difficult time she had when she went to see her daughter’s body.

She said: ‘One side of her face was puffy and the other side had a bruise. ‘

“Even now, when I close my eyes, I can still picture what my baby looked like. ”

Ms Sharif and her husband stopped living together in 2015. Sara and her older brother lived with Ms. Sharif until 2019. Then, the family court decided that they should live with their father.

Ms Sharif could still see her children and it was initially easy, but it got more difficult as time went on.

Sara’s grandfather told the BBC that the girl’s death was unintentional. He also mentioned that three family members who went to Pakistan will eventually come back to be questioned by the police.

Muhammad Sharif said he saw Sara’s dad shortly after arriving in Jhelum, a city in South Asia. He mentioned that his son left the UK because he was scared.

The police in Surrey are asking for help to understand more about Sara’s life.
