In a recent development regarding the tragic case of 10-year-old Sara Sharif’s death in the UK, five children who traveled to Pakistan with Sara’s father and stepmother have been taken into the custody of the Child Protection and Welfare Bureau, following a ruling by Senior Judge Javed Iqbal Khokar.
The children, aged between one and 13, were found at the house of Sara’s grandfather, Mohammad Sharif, in the northeastern city of Jhelum during a raid conducted by local police. Mohammad Sharif, Sara’s grandfather, had been taking care of the children since their arrival in Pakistan over a month ago, expressing his intention to protect them.
