'I hid Sara Sharif's family during international police hunt'

'I hid Sara Sharif's family during international police hunt' Rasikh Munir says he was the one who hid them from police for nearly a month .

He says he believed father Urfan Sharif was innocent and that he'd taken the family in to protect the children.

The BBC has followed the story in Pakistan since the first media reports of Sara’s death broke.

Family stayed with Mr Munir during international police hunt for Sara 's siblings.

He drove them back and forth between his house in Sialkot and the city of Jhelum , two hours away, where Sara ’s grandfather lived.

He says the family was able to pass through police checkpoints without incident.

But then the net began to tighten and the three adults began to return to the UK .

He booked flights in their names, even though there was an Interpol notice to find them.

Sara ’s grandfather and other members of the family have repeatedly lodged complaints in court that their family members were picked up by police to apply pressure on them to give up their whereabouts.

Police in Pakistan deny this. They say, since the hunt, all the cases against family have been dropped.
