BREAKING: Sara Sharif's dad 'attacked by Sarah Mayhew murderer who scattered her body parts'

The man who attacked Sara Sharif's killer father in prison is a convicted murderer who chopped up a woman's body and left her remains in a park, according to insiders. Steven Sansom was convicted of the murder of Sarah Mayhew, 38, last year. A trial heard he cut her body up with power tools before leaving her legs, arms and head in a field in Croydon. The 46-year-old is now alleged to have attacked murderer Urfan Sharif at HMP Belmarsh on New Year's Day with a tuna can lid. Sansom, who also murdered a taxi driver when he was just 19, is reported to have cornered Sharif in his cell with the assistance of another inmate.
A source told the Sun: "Everyone is talking about how it was Sansom who got to Sharif. He and another inmate apparently pounced on him as he walked back to the wing after a shower, forced him into a cell and slashed him. The other bloke, who is also a murderer, held the door shut.".
Last month, Urfan Sharif was jailed for a minimum of 40 years for the murder of 10-year-old Sara Sharif alongside her stepmum Beinash Batool, 30, and her uncle, Faisal Malik, 29. The child was subjected to two years of torture before she was found dead at the family home on August8, 2023.
Within hours of her death Urfan Sharif, Batool, and his brother Malik had fled to Pakistan, where Urfan confessed to the killing in a long-distance 999 call. After Pakistani police began making enquiries, the trio later returned to the UK voluntarily and were arrested at Gatwick airport. Sara - who was described as having had a "beautiful smile and loud laugh" - died with 25 fractures and 71 external injuries, including bite marks and iron burns.
