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

[Alyce]

I wonder if the former neighbour ever reported these sounds to social services or to Sara's school.

I also wonder if Sara's bruises were reported as a safeguarding concern and social services were involved.

I wonder if all the children were being smacked ,including Sara's brother, or was it just the girls or perhaps only Sara.

I read it as being all the female children - but, perhaps the little ones were not being abused, maybe just screaming as they watched the endless abuse being done to Sara ?

I doubt Sara's brother received any abuse.

 

[Dotta]

All were abused.
Neighbours heard screams of CHILDREN as was reported in links above.
Female children.

So I guess the oldest boy was spared.
But then,
he is firstborn male,
so probably treated like Prince (by father).

This wicked step"mother" wouldn't dare to hit him.

All kids were subjected to unhinged, vile, vulgar screaming.

Disgusting

But it is only My Opinion

Sara Sharif 'had a plastic home-made hood taped over her head'

Urfan Sharif is accused of battering his 10-year-old daughter Sara to death before fleeing to Pakistan last August after subjecting the schoolgirl to weeks of brutal abuse.

www.dailymail.co.uk

The Old Bailey heard that neighbours of the family's cramped home in Surrey often heard screaming and the sound of a child crying accompanied by 'banging and rattling' as if someone was trying to alert someone that they were trapped behind a door.

Neighbour Rebecca Spencer said she would often hear screams, crying and then 'deathly quiet' when a distraught child fell silent.


Emlyn Jones said: 'On other occasions Ms Spencer would hear other bangs from the flat and which sounded like someone had been hit or smacked….Ms Spencer did consider reporting what she heard to social services but ultimately decided against it.'

A new tenant Chloe Redwin similarly described hearing a child screaming followed by their stepmother Beinash Batool, 30, shouting, 'shut the * up' and 'go to your room you **** b******', it was said.

Ms Redwin would also frequently hear the mother refer to children as 'c****', jurors were told.

The prosecutor said: 'On occasions Ms Redwin would hear sounds of smacking; they were shockingly loud and would be followed by gut-wrenching screams of a young female child.

'Over the screaming she would hear the mother shout, 'shut up' and sometimes the sounds of further smacking would be heard followed by shouting.'

None of the neighbours alerted the authorities as Sara seemed 'smartly dressed' and there were no obvious signs of injury, it was said.

My opinion is that it was likely that only Sara was being hit. It was her cries and screams heard. How many times do we have to hear of step parents abusing a young child. It's repeated over and over.

Sara Sharif’s head covered with ‘home-made hoods’ of plastic bags and parcel tape, court told​

​

Sara Sharif’s head may have been covered with
“home-made hoods” made of plastic bags and parcel tape,
the court heard.

In the month before the child died,
her stepmother Beinash Batool allegedly bought 18 rolls of parcel tape online within nine days,
jurors were told.

Police later found
“strange-looking objects”
in the wheelie bins that were
“plastic bags wrapped up with parcel tape”,
some of which had traces of Sara’s blood on,
prosecutor William Emlyn Jones KC said.

He continued:
“The prosecution suggest that it is in fact obvious what these items were".

“They are homemade hoods.

They had been placed over Sara’s head,
we suggest, and then taped in place.”



The trial heard that fingerprints allegedly belonging to her father, Urfan Sharif, were found on one of the bags
that was tested by forensics and on the non-adhesive side of a bit of parcel tape.

Sara Sharif: Girl, 10, hooded and burned by abusers - court

Makeshift plastic hoods were used on the 10-year-old, who suffered dozens of injuries, jurors heard.

www.bbc.co.uk

A bloodstained cricket bat, a rolling pin with Sara’s DNA on it, a metal pole, a belt and rope were found near the family’s outhouse, Mr Emlyn Jones KC said.

“You can now look again at the bruises and broken bones Sara had suffered with a clearer understanding of how at least some of those injuries appear to have been inflicted,” he told the jury.

Plastic bags bound with parcel tape were also found in wheelie bins at the family’s property, after Ms Batool ordered 18 rolls of parcel tape in two separate online orders, prosecutors said.

“It is obvious what these are. They are homemade hoods. They had been placed over Sara’s head and taped in place,” Mr Emlyn Jones KC said.

“If this was being done by one of the adults in the house, why aren’t the others releasing her? Why aren’t the others helping her, preventing this terrible treatment?” he added.

But it is only My Opinion

My speculation is they all got physically disciplined, but Sara got it by far the worst.

Some households in Pakistan employ live in 'child maids' who can be girls as young as 9. In addition to this, a lot of household and childrearing duties traditionally fall to the eldest daughter, particularly in large families. I suspect that the stepmother, who had three small children on her hands, saw a combination of both in Sara. That could have been the why she was pulled from school - and/or the abuse was getting hard to hide.

When Sara resisted or failed at her role as a complaint and competent little nanny-maid, as any child would, she got beaten. As a male, her brother did not suffer under the same misogynistic expectations, so was 'disciplined' less. That could have been the seed of that disgusting dynamic seen too often in such cases. Where one child (often a stepchild) is scapegoated and targeted for ever escalating abuse. Often ending in death due to compounding injuries or neglect.

Pure speculation. IMO

Plastic coated metal pole found in outhouse a match to bruises on Sara’s body, jury told​

Prosecutor William Emlyn Jones KC told the court that
some linear bruises found Sara Sharif’s body gave the impression of being caused by an object,
rather than fists and feet.

A plastic coated metal pole found in a brick out house at the address
was compared to Sara’s bruising by an expert.

“His conclusion is that the pole does appear to be a candidate for having been used to cause those particular bruises,”
Mr Emlyn Jones said.

The expert also found that other bruises may have been caused by a belt buckle found in a Wendy house in the garden,
he added.

Honestly,
Throw away the keys!!!!

I think that Sara was removed from school because the abuse was accelerating and it was getting harder to hide her injuries and they were worried about the school questioning how she received her injuries .

I would like to offer some words to the three on trial, and every teacher who saw bruising and neighbour who heard the abuse but decided not to get involved.

Unfortunately those words would be entirely **advertiser censored** on this website.

So school also failed this poor child if facial bruises were spotted on more than one occasion but no safeguarding implemented. Bearing in mind the face is the only skin revealed IMO

Everybody played "deaf & blind".

The little girl was alone in her suffering.
It was reported she was brain damaged in the end.

Some people don't deserve children.
They are heartless, soulless, vile and depraved.
They have no idea what LOVE means.

When we get to the inevitable Public Inquiry, the school not reporting obvious safeguarding concerns is going to play very badly.

‘I cannot even imagine what happened to make crying or screaming child become immediately silent,’ ​

trial hears from neighbour​

A former neighbour of Sara Sharif and her family
heard screaming and noises that sounded like
“someone had been hit or smacked”,
the trial at the Old Bailey heard on Tuesday.

Rebecca Spencer said she heard the noises
“from the moment” the Sharif family moved into a flat on Eden Grove in West Byfleet in around 2018 to 2019,
prosecutor William Emlyn Jones KC told jurors.

He said Ms Spencer thought
the “banging and rattling” sounded like “someone was banging on and pushing at a door” as if trying to open it.

Reading a statement from Ms Spencer, Mr Emlyn Jones said:

“On the occasions I would hear these banging and rattling sounds,
they would often be accompanied by the sounds of a child crying or a screaming,
followed by complete silence".

"On those occasions
I can only describe the silence as ‘deathly quiet’ and I cannot even imagine what had happened to make the crying or screaming child become immediately silent.”

Ms Spencer said she thought two of the defendants,
Sara’s father and stepmother, were living in the house at the time.

Jurors were told that the tape was used to construct the 'home-made hoods'.

Discarded in bins outside the family home were towels and Sara's leggings, which were soaking wet with urine, as well as a soiled nappy Sara had been forced to wear, jurors heard.

The prosecutor told jurors: 'Consider for a moment what it would take to keep Sara tied up, taped up or retrained, or hooded, in the way that these objects indicate.

Honestly hun. You might want to give this one a breather for your own sake. I can feel your infuriated rage at every sickening detail through my screen.

Some cases just hit different. Getting in too deep at the expense of your mental wellbeing helps nobody. Sara has gone beyond where the pain of this world can reach. Go outside and feel the sun for her. The wheels of justice will grind on these three ** extremely advertiser censored** failures of humanity without you personally bearing witness to her every fresh horror.

Yes and thank you.

But this trial is my priority on WS.
I'm Polish and Sara was my compatriot.
I will stick here to the bitter end.

Bitter for these criminals, that is.

I also check Polish MSM here,
there is massive coverage of this tragedy and trial
but the same info as in English Media.

If I see something that is not covered in British MSM,
I will post here.

For those, like me, who don't know what a Wendy house is, it's what we would call a playhouse in USA. Could be used for storage as well.
