Urfan Sharif, 41, and Beinash Batool, 29, are wanted by police for questioning in relation to the death of Sara, whose body was found at the family home in Woking on 10 August. Their statement came after Sara's mother said that she had barely recognised her daughter's body because she had been so badly injured.
Batool, Sharif and his brother Faisal Malik, 28, are believed to have travelled to Islamabad on 9 August. Surrey police said they had left with five children aged between one and 13 years old.
In the footage, Batool showed no emotion as she said she and Sharif were willing to cooperate with UK authorities over the case. She said: "Sara's death was an incident. Our family in Pakistan are severely affected by all that is going on."

'So far so good' Coach perfect fit for Reds, says captain
Virgil van Dijk believes Liverpool found the \"perfect match\" for their tight-knit, experienced squad when appointing Arne Slot as Jürgen Klopp's successor.
Definitely maybe: Slot looks imperious at Anfield but could Guardiola be forced from Etihad?
