Video of Sara Sharif Dancing Shown in Court Amid Murder Trial

Footage taken days before her death highlights the alleged abuse faced by the 10-year-old, as her father, stepmother, and uncle stand accused of her murder.

Sara Sharif was seen dancing in a video recorded two days before her death, which was presented to jurors at the Old Bailey.
The prosecution claims Sara suffered extensive physical abuse, including burns and bite marks, leading up to her death on August 8, 2023.
Her father Urfan Sharif, stepmother Beinash Batool, and uncle Faisal Malik have denied charges of murder and causing or allowing the death of a child.
The defendants fled to Pakistan shortly before Sara's body was discovered in her home in Woking, Surrey.
Prosecutors allege that Urfan Sharif confessed to killing Sara in a call to police from Pakistan, though he later claimed the confession was false.
