Police are investigating after  Sara Sharif's father was  allegedly attacked in prison weeks after being jailed for the  murder of the 10-year-old boy.
Urfan Sharif  was allegedly attacked at Belmarsh Prison on New Year's Day by two other inmates in a cell, the Sun newspaper  reported.
Sharif suffered cuts to his neck and  face and is  believed to have received medical treatment  in prison.
Sharif, 43, and Sara's  sister were  jailed for life after  pleading guilty at the Old Bailey last month  to murdering Sara at their home in Woking,  Surrey. A spokesman for the Prison Service said:  "Police are investigating an assault on a prisoner at HMP Belmarsh on  January 1.
"It would be inappropriate to comment further while  the investigation is ongoing."
Belmarsh is a Category A  prison in south-east London  that houses some of the  UK's most dangerous  prisoners.
According to the Sun, Sharif was  attacked with  an improvised weapon.
A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said:  "Police are investigating an allegation that a prisoner was assaulted at HMP Belmarsh on  January 1.
"The victim, a 43-year-old man, suffered  non-life-threatening injuries."

Sara was found dead in August 2023
Sara was hooded, burned and beaten during a  "torture campaign" that lasted two years before her body was found  in the family home in August  2023. Urfan Sharif was sentenced to  at least 40 years in prison for murder, while his wife Beinash Batool, 30, received  at least 33  years.
Sarah's uncle, Faisal Malik, 29, was  jailed for 16  years for causing or  abetting her  death.
The three  men fled to Islamabad, Pakistan, with  Sarah's five  siblings the day before her body was found,  sparking an international  manhunt.
They hid there for four weeks before returning to the UK, where they were arrested.
