Urfan Sharif Returns to UK Amidst Questions Over Daughter Sara’s Death
Urfan Sharif, the father of ten-year-old Sara Sharif, is set to return to the United Kingdom after evading authorities in Pakistan for a month. The young girl’s lifeless body was discovered at her residence in Woking, Surrey, on August 10, triggering an international search for her father.
Urfan, aged 41, had fled the UK along with his partner, Beinash Batool, 29, shortly after Sara’s tragic death. They are now on an Emirates flight from Sialkot in the Punjab, en route to London Gatwick, where they are expected to arrive later today.
The return of Urfan Sharif raises several pressing questions:
- Why Did He Leave and Then Call 999?
Sara’s lifeless body was found in the early hours of August 10, following a 999 call made by Urfan from Pakistan, likely from Islamabad. The police have identified Urfan, Beinash Batool, and Urfan’s brother, Faisal Malik, 28, as individuals of interest in the ongoing investigation. - Did Sara Fall Down a Staircase?
Urfan’s brother, Imran Sharif, claimed that Sara’s demise was a result of a fall down the stairs at home, causing a neck injury. This assertion contradicts Sara’s mother Olga Sharif’s stance, who believes there is more to the story. - Why Didn’t Urfan Speak Out?
In a video shared online, Beinash referred to Sara’s death as an “incident” and expressed their willingness to cooperate with UK authorities. However, Urfan remained silent, leaving questions about their involvement unanswered. - What Were Sara’s Injuries?
A post-mortem revealed that Sara had suffered “multiple and extensive” injuries, though the exact cause of death remains undetermined. The police have widened their investigation to understand the circumstances surrounding these injuries. - Where Has He Been?
While Urfan’s initial call to the police was traced to Islamabad, the Sharif family’s home is in Jhelum. Police have conducted searches at numerous properties in Pakistan. Additionally, Sara’s five siblings, aged between one and 13, were taken to Pakistan and placed in a government childcare facility.
Sara’s mother, Olga Sharif, has shared the heart-wrenching experience of viewing her daughter’s body, describing visible signs of injury. The Sharif family’s Pakistani lawyer, Malik Asif Taufique, claims that Urfan and Beinash fled the UK due to concerns raised by a British lawyer about potential consequences, including the custody of their children, should they stay in the UK.
Urfan Sharif’s return to the UK marks a significant development in the ongoing investigation into Sara’s tragic death, as authorities seek answers to the questions that have haunted her grieving family.
