Pakistan police on Sunday said that they will arrest Sara Sharif’s father — who is on a run after his 10-year-old daughter was found dead at home in the UK — by tomorrow night, The Daily Mirror reported. Sara Sharif’s body was discovered at her family home in Woking, Surrey, on August 10, triggering a murder investigation by Surrey Police.
The incident led to an international manhunt for her father Urfan Sharif, his partner Beinash Batool, and his brother Faisal Malik, who had all travelled to Pakistan before her body was found. Initial findings from the post-mortem examination revealed that the young girl had sustained “multiple and extensive injuries” over an extended period, elevating the urgency of the investigation.
The police are tracking a mobile phone SIM card that belongs to Urfan and is being “actively used”. “With God’s will we will make the arrest by tomorrow night,” Jhelum police chief Nasir Bajwa said. The police have so far questioned Urfan’s father, brother and uncle.
