In an ideal world, the local crowds could congregate outside the court and watch the noose go round their neck before they're hanged.

In the current world, I think it should’ve been a whole life order. Stick them in solitary (not protection; solitary) and leave them there for the rest of their miserable, undeserving, pathetic lives.

Slow death by iron burns, biting and beatings.

But failing that, whole life for all three depraved monsters.

I thought the judges summing up was just brilliant. He really didn't hold back and ripped into them. They really are cowards, they couldn't even look at him.
And I was pleased that he said something about Sara, so that she was acknowledged in death, not just a statistic.
As for the sentence. Sharif is 43,so that means he might die in prison. The so called step mother is 33 so she will have lost her best years before she is considered for release.
I'm not sure what the maximum sentence is for causing or allowing the death of a child is, but I feel the so called uncle should have got 20.
They aren't even animals, they are sadists and monsters. I hope they suffer every single day. I'm not normally vindictive, but I'll make an exception for them.
RIP Sara.

Where did you view this?

He should have been barred from making an application to look after this child as soon as one had been taken into care.

I can just about understand an inexperienced social worker making a mistake. But the judge who is experienced, educated, highly paid and presumably still practicing? No. This person is incompetent.

If you have had a child taken into care there should be a statutory bar preventing an application for the care of any other child. The family court is clearly too credulous and stupid to consider a clear risk. These are highly paid and qualified people. If they are not up to the task they should be prevented from exercising power than can mean life or death, harm or no harm.

I agree.

My hopes are that following this devastating case, major changes and improvements are made to family court proceedings. This is imperative!!!

For those calling for the death penalty, my great aunt's rapist and murderer was hanged. This was in the 1950s in Africa.
I've spoken to her children and siblings at length of they think this was the best outcome. They all wished he had lived and had to live with the consequences of his actions. They felt he actually got away with ever facing it or feeling remorse. They would have wanted whole life tariff.

SallyWD · 17/12/2024 15:21

How old's the dad? He looks like he's in his 40s so he will probably be in prison for the rest of his life. I hope so.

43 I believe. She’s in her 30s.

I can't see how that's going to happen in Pakistan

Why not?

PullTheBricksDown · 17/12/2024 15:56

Feel very sorry for the judge and jury hearing the case. Hope they get support.

Whole life would have been preferable but looks quite possible they will die behind bars. If other prisoners manage to get anywhere near them and have a go, I won't shed a tear. I hope they're scared of what awaits. They deserve to be. I'll save my sympathy for people who merit it.

NewGreenDuck · 17/12/2024 16:17

@MacLoL it was shown live on the BBC news website. Often the sentencing of major trials are shown live. It's probably on the iplayer, but it is harrowing to hear.
Sorry. You have found it.

Enough4me · 16/12/2024 22:56

There's a petition for them to get life, I'll try to find the details.

Do people really imagine that signing their name on one of Change.org's many petitions is going to make a difference to how a judge sentences criminals?🙄

Horrific case. I feel for all those involved who have had to listen to the details of this. I hope they have a miserable time in prison.

Kibble29 · 17/12/2024 16:32

I just watched the sentencing statement and I can say with certainty that nobody will ever persuade me to think that those despicable monsters should get to live.

The details of that like girl’s injuries are horrific. I’m not someone who is easily shocked but this did it. I won’t repeat it here as I imagine some people want to save themselves the details.

Save the “…but we’re a civilised society!” and “maybe he’s innocent” shit. Save the “talk of killing them would just make us as bad as the killers”. No it wouldn’t.

Zero remorse. The sadistic, prolonged torture of a 10 year old (which they believe began at age 6 or 7) and the numerous attempt to escape the law. They don’t deserve to breathe.

MacLoL · 17/12/2024 16:36

They will be highly manipulative prisoners and cause mischief during their time there. The father will get weird women writing to him and declaring their love, the mother will get respect as she appears fearless. People like that find their way, wherever they are. Death sentence would be better. But that's just idle musing. They are evil in the actual sense of the word. I'm nosy and wonder what their upbringing was like. Did both grow up in Pakistan and moved to the UK as adults? What their school friends will be thinking. Sara has been returned to Poland, may she rest in peace.

Death

ThisOldThang · 17/12/2024 16:39

@Kibble29

You're certainly not alone in that thinking.

From the Telegraph.

We will never know precisely what killed Sara Sharif. The 10-year-old’s body suffered at least 25 fractures and 71 external injuries including human bite marks and burns made with an iron. That beautiful little girl had been beaten with a cricket bat, tied to a radiator and her back was broken with a force said to be comparable to that of falling from a 20ft height.

When Surrey police broke into the Sharif family home, after a tip-off from Sara’s father, Urfan Sharif, they found hoods made from plastic bags, with a small hole for the mouth, which forensic evidence showed would be fixed to Sara’s face. Before fleeing to Pakistan, Urfan called police to explain he had not meant to kill his daughter, but that he had beaten her up “too much” for being naughty.

The details of Sara’s torture and eventual murder at the hands of her father and wicked stepmother, Beinash Batool, were so horrific that even my mild-mannered Christian colleague Tim Stanley was moved to volunteer himself for a firing squad.

For them never to see the light of day again. And hard labour seven days a week.

Her name was Sara.

I have just heard that summing up of the injuries inflicted on Sara and it has literally taken my breath away

Sara must have been in a so much agony for weeks on end, it is incredible what she suffered. Death would have been a welcome relief

Death occurred after her father beat her abdomen with a metal pole as a punishment for 'faking' injuries. I doubt she felt much relief.

Donttellempike · 17/12/2024 17:01

It’s a turn of phrase. Obviously

GroovyChick87 · 17/12/2024 17:03

Death is too good for those monsters. I also believe the uncle's sentence is too short when taken into consideration the time he will actually serve. I hope and pray that little girl's soul is now at peace wherever she is.
