The 10-year-old's body was found with dozens of injuries at the family’s home in Surrey last year.
Sara was hooded, burned and beaten during more than two years of abuse before her body was found with dozens of injuries at the family's home in Woking, Surrey, last year.
Her father Urfan Sharif, 43, stepmother Beinash Batool, 30, and uncle, Faisal Malik, 29, travelled to Islamabad, Pakistan, with Sara's siblings on 9 August 2023, the day after she died.There was no reaction from Sharif as the verdicts were delivered at the Old Bailey, while Batool cried.Sentencing is due to take place next week.
Next to Sara's body, which was found by police in a bunkbed, was a note in her father's handwriting, which read: "Whoever see this note, it's me Urfan Sharif who killed my daughter by beating." Jurors were initially told that Sharif's case was that Batool was responsible for Sara's death, and he made a false confession in a note and a subsequent phone call to protect his wife.Children's home gets outstanding Ofsted ratingWoking say the "path is now clear" for the takeover by the Cardinal Football Group after shareholders voted in favour of the sale.
