Sara Sharif’s Polish family has blasted her killers as ‘beasts’ and called for them to ‘rot in prison’ for her murder.
The 10-year-old schoolgirl passed away after her father Urfan Sharif gained custody and initiated a series of cruel abuse on her alongside his wife Beinash Batool.
Authorities in Britain permitted Sara’s Polish mother, Olga Domin, to be excluded from her life while the malevolent couple subjected the young girl to binding, burning, and beating until her demise on August 8 of the previous year.
Jurors convicted Sharif, 42, and Batool, 30, of murder following a six-week trial at the Old Bailey.
Sara’s uncle, Faisal Malik, aged 29, who resided with them and five other children in a small two-bedroom apartment in Woking, Surrey, was found guilty of causing or allowing the death of a child.
Sara’s mother, who has since returned to Poland with her daughter’s body, was too upset to talk, but her relatives hit out at the killers.
An uncle, who asked not to be named, told the Mail: ‘It’s been a year since Sara was buried, we are just trying to live our lives now. But what matters is that they rot in prison.’
Ms Domin, 37, met Sharif in 2009 after he went looking for another Polish ex-partner who had fled him after he held her captive.
They married quickly but afterwards she claimed Sharif was abusive to her from the start of the relationship, once throttling her with a belt.

It got so bad that she had to shelter in a women’s refuge with Sara for six months in 2015.
Yet in 2019 Sharif won custody of Sara following a complaint to social services claiming Ms Domin was abusive.
Together, Batool and Sharif would tie up Sara, hit her with a cricket bat and burn her with an iron. She was found with 71 external injuries after she died.
Ms Domin’s mother, Sylwia Kurz, said the details that came out during the Old Bailey trial have left her daughter broken.
‘I suspect that Beinash was a torturer, but she was also beaten, just like Olga,’ she told Polish TV channel Uwaga.
‘I suspect she was taking her frustration out on Sara. I think she is on par with Urfan, they are both the same. These are not people, these are beasts.’

On what her granddaughter had to endure, she said: ‘I can’t understand how much Sara went through, how much pain she had to go through.
‘She must have suffered so much. How is it possible to be such a degenerate?’
Ms Domin was not called as a witness and neither she nor her mother attended the trial as the evidence of what happened to Sara was too painful for them to hear.
‘How can we sit there and listen to all this?’ said Ms Kurz. ‘We are going through hell here and I am mentally exhausted.
‘Please imagine me sitting there on that bench and listening, I wouldn’t be able to cope, but do you think Olga would be able to cope?
‘As a grandmother, I am mentally exhausted, and imagine how my daughter feels when she buried her own child.
‘I don’t know if I could sit there and look at their faces. These are wounds that never heal and never will.’
