Authorities are probing an attack on Urfan Sharif, convicted of murdering his daughter, Sara, while he was incarcerated.
Woking: So, it turns out Urfan Sharif, the guy convicted of killing his daughter Sara, got attacked in prison. This happened at Belmarsh Prison on New Year’s Day, and it’s making headlines.
Apparently, two inmates jumped him in his cell. He ended up with some cuts on his neck and face, but he got medical help right there in prison.
Just to recap, Sharif and his wife were sentenced to life for the horrific murder of their 10-year-old daughter. It’s a pretty grim story, and it’s been all over the news.
A spokesperson from the Prison Service confirmed that the police are looking into the assault. They didn’t want to say much more while the investigation is ongoing.
Belmarsh is known for housing some of the most dangerous criminals in the UK, so it’s not surprising that things can get rough in there.
According to reports, Sharif was attacked with something made up, like a makeshift weapon. The police have said his injuries aren’t life-threatening, which is a relief.
Just to remind you, Sara suffered a terrible fate. She was tortured for two years before her body was found last August. It’s just heartbreaking.
Urfan got a minimum of 40 years for his crime, while his wife got 33 years. Their uncle also got time for his role in it all. They even fled to Pakistan right before Sara’s body was discovered, which led to a huge manhunt.
They stayed in hiding for a month before coming back to the UK, where they were arrested. It’s a wild story, and it’s still unfolding.
