The father and stepmother of 10-year-old Sara Sharif have been jailed for life for her murder.

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, and stepmother, Beinash Batool, 30, were found guilty of murder on Wednesday, while her uncle, Faisal Malik, 29, was convicted of causing or allowing a child’s death.

At the Old Bailey, Sharif was sentenced to a minimum of 40 years in prison, while Batool received a minimum of 33 years.

Malik was sentenced to 16 years’ imprisonment.
