Sara Sharif’s father and stepmother will today be sentenced for killing the 10-year-old schoolgirl at her home in Surrey following years of horrific abuse.
Last week, Urfan Sharif, 42, and stepmother Beinash Batool, 30, were found guilty of her murder following a trial at the Old Bailey.
Her uncle, Faisal Malik, 29, who lived with them, was convicted of causing or allowing her death after a jury deliberated for nine hours and 46 minutes.
The three defendants return to the Old Bailey with Mr Justice Cavanagh’s sentencing expected to be broadcast from the court.
