Urfan Sharif, Father Who Killed Daughter Sara, Attacked in Prison
The tragic murder of 10-year-old Sara Sharif in August 2023 shocked the world. Her father, Urfan Sharif, admitted to beating her to death after years of horrific abuse. A handwritten note found near her body confirmed his confession, in which he claimed, “I lost it,” though he didn’t intend to kill her.
Sara suffered over 70 injuries, including fractures, burns, and bite marks. Urfan, his wife Beinash Batool, and his brother fled to Pakistan but were later extradited and charged. In December 2024, Sharif received a life sentence with a minimum of 40 years. Batool was sentenced to at least 33 years, and the uncle, Faisal Malik, received 16 years.
