UK - Sara Sharif, 10, found murdered in house, Surrey, Aug 2023 *POIs ARREST* #2

[Lucy6226]

Precious little Sara, horrific from that article, excerpt below. Every day the pain and terror she must have felt. I do hope her brother is able to find his voice without fear.

'Sara sustained a number of injuries - a healed fracture to one of her clavicles, multiple rib fractures, multiple bruising to the torso and limbs and the presence of haemorrhage on her brain.

'There were multiple healing fractures on different parts of body suggesting multiple events of violence over a period of time which must have culminated in her death.'

Poor poor girl. I guess this explains why she was pulled out of school, we'd all suggested it might have been to cover ongoing abuse

Also
She was denied education

(because let's not pretend the girl was "home schooled", cough, cough)

to become a free nanny to the newborn brother.

After all,
the neighbours said the Baby was constantly seen in the arms of Sara.

Robbed of friends.
Robbed of future as an educated woman.
Robbed of life.

yes i should imagine she would have been too poorly, in agony to even move about let alone get up and off to school. Another reminder how utterly evil people can be. I think the uncle will feign ignorance and the father and step mother will turn on each other. Too late for Sara and no solace for her mother but at least they won't get to hurt anymore children.

 

[JennieM]

Everyone failed her. Too little too late. No lessons to be learnt - have we not learnt our lessons already? The pile up of all the other failed children, the get-out clause for social services, witnesses and the state. Unjust and shameful. Lock them up, deprive them like they deprived.

 

[Dotta]

I wonder about Sara's siblings.
How are they?
Are they cared for with affection?

There are 3 girls and 2 boys.

I saw a picture of Sara's brother (half Polish) once.

He was tall and very thin.
His bones stuck out.
They were in Pakistan.
He was taking care of his little brother, carrying him protectively in his arms.
You could see the love he felt for the Baby.

I noticed Pakistani Grandad felt also very protective of the kids.
He was very proud of the oldest grandson.
Talking about his talent for cricket.
Also wanted to organize a private school for him in Pakistan.

I guess I read all this in Pakistani MSM,
but I'm not sure now.

So much time has passed.
A year, precisely.

The grandfather also lied to protect the people who murdered Sara.

I know.
I have been following this case from the start.

I simply worry about these kids.
I hope nothing bad is happening to them

Trial date set for three family members accused of murdering Sara Sharif

Sara Sharif's body was discovered at her home near Woking last summer, her father, stepmother and uncle have been charged with her murder

www.getsurrey.co.uk

Sharif, Batool and Malik have all denied the charges. They appeared at the Old Bailey via video-link on Friday, March 1, where Judge Mark Lucraft scheduled their trial for October 1. It's expected the trial will last around six weeks and will be heard before High Court judge Mr Justice Cavanagh.

I wonder what's happening with their trial. It was supposed to start today.

Their trial had been fixed for 1 October but it will now begin on 7 October when a jury will be selected.

The prosecutor will then open the case to the jury on October 14.

The trial will be heard by High Court judge Mr Justice Cavanagh and is estimated to last up to seven weeks.

just bringing Skigh's post back up, with the new details

It was announced a while ago that the date had changed. Jury selection starting on the 7'th of October and trial beginning on the 14th.

 

[Tortoise]

Ooh I missed that. Thanks @Alyce and @Skigh

 

[Dotta]

I'm already scared of horrific details this trial might reveal

I'm afraid it will be as heartbreaking as poor little Arthur LH's one.
Difficult to follow.
And Logan M's.

Poor sweet Sara has yet to be put to rest.
Arthur also was buried only after the trial.

RIP to all innocent child victims

I know the Grandad lied and I don't condone it, but I think he did it to protect the children and keep them in the family, I think he worried that if he informed the authorities while dad, brother and stepmum were present then the children would also be taken away too and he would loose them.

Does anyone know who the defence barristers are?

Think Dan Taylor is defending Faisal Malik but can’t find the other two.

Are they taking the whole week to seat a jury? I don't understand why it would take so long, and if it's not going to take the whole week, would selected jurors be sent home today and told to come back next week?

It is a bit odd isn't it. I've seen this before - the Constance Marten/Mark Gordon trial was the same. Jury was chosen on a Monday and then told to come back the following week. But no idea why.

That must be so inconvenient for the jurors. Presumably they will have made arrangements to be available for jury service from today, and they won't even be getting the daily allowance for days they don't have to attend.
