A heartbroken West Country mum has issued a moving tribute after her young daughter was found dead. Olga Sharif's daughter Sara is believed to have been killed at her dad's £550,000 home.
The discovery of the 10-year-old's lifeless body shattered a quiet village as a large-scale police investigation and manhunt got underway in the early hours of Thursday morning. Officers are looking to speak to three people known to the victim who are believed to have left the country, reports Somerset Live.
Olga, from Somerset, said she was on her way to Poland when she received a phone call from police telling her that Sara had been found dead. Overcome with grief, she travelled six hours to get back to the UK. Olga said that she was only allowed to see her children twice since she lost custody of them in 2019.

The 36-year-old claimed her ex-husband Urfan Sharif, 41, had been given sole custody of Sara by a court. However, she said they "always stayed close", bonding over a love of arts and crafts and trips to the local zoo.
She has now spoken about her "amazing" daughter, describing Sara as "happy and always laughing", she told The Sun: "My life will never be the same again. Sara should be with me right now. She was too young."
She described her as an "outgoing" and "cheeky" girl who had lots of friends at school and was a fan of Frozen Disney films. They would spend time together knitting jumpers and learning to crochet, she added.
"I couldn't see my daughter for four years, and now she is dead. She's only a kid, she had done nothing wrong."
She claimed that she used to be sent frequent photos of her children until 2021, when an argument between her and Urfan's new partner allegedly led to her being cut off completely. Sara's body was found in the village of of Horsell, near Woking, in Surrey.
The grief-stricken mum, who is set to see Sara's body after a post-mortem examination today (Tuesday, August 15), said she is yet to be told how her daughter's tragic death unfolded.
She continued: "There is nothing I can do that can bring her back to life, so I have to only remember the good times with her now. Life is really hard. It’s just not fair."
Her comments come as police say three people sought by detectives were known to the victim.
A spokesman said: "Inquires are ongoing to locate the three identified people we would like to speak to in connection with our investigation into the death of a 10-year-old girl in Woking.
"Detectives have confirmed that no other people were present at the address when they attended in the early hours of Thursday morning. The three people they would like to speak to were known to the victim."
Last week, there was a heavy police presence at the semi-detached property and neighbours told that a Pakistani family with six "very young" children had moved into the house in April.
Surrey police, which did not give any further information about the victim or the three people, said officers are still at the address and that no arrests have yet been made. A post-mortem examination is due to be held this afternoon and formal identification has yet to take place.
