Urfan Sharif and Beinash Batool sentenced to life for the murder of their daughter Sara after years of abuse and torture
Woking: It’s a heartbreaking story. Urfan Sharif and his wife, Beinash Batool, have been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of their 10-year-old daughter, Sara. The details are just gut-wrenching.
Sara suffered unimaginable abuse. She had multiple broken bones, bite marks, and even burn injuries. It’s hard to believe that a parent could do this to their own child. The poor girl was left alone at home, and her body was discovered by the police.
Urfan, 43, and Beinash, 30, inflicted so much pain on Sara. They even left a note with her body, and Urfan called the police, admitting to the murder. He tried to justify it by saying she was “naughty.” Can you believe that?
The judge was really tough on them, sentencing Urfan to at least 40 years and Beinash to 33 years. The courtroom erupted in cheers when the sentence was announced. People were just so relieved to see justice served.
Urfan’s brother, Faisal Malik, was also involved but was cleared of murder. He got 16 years for allowing the abuse to happen. The judge described the treatment of Sara as “almost inconceivable.”
It’s just so sad. Sara was described as a beautiful little girl with a spirit that couldn’t be broken. Her mother, Olga, watched the trial from Poland and expressed her heartbreak. She called the defendants “sadists” and “executioners.”
During the trial, Urfan tried to shift the blame onto Beinash, but he eventually admitted to some of the violence. It’s just a tragic situation all around. Sara was treated like a servant in her own home, and the judge pointed out how worthless they made her feel.
There were so many missed opportunities to save Sara. Concerns about her safety were raised before, but nothing was done. It’s a real wake-up call about how we protect children in our society.
After Sara’s death, there have been calls for changes in child protection laws. It’s shocking to think that some parents can hide behind the law to justify such cruelty. We need to do better for our kids.
