Emergency crews rushed to Woodbourn Road after her body was found just after 6.10am.

Despite their best efforts, Shara was tragically confirmed dead at the scene.

Three men, aged 38, 31 and 29, have since been arrested and remain in custody.

Cops believe that Shara was killed in the early hours at the location where her body was found.

West Midlands Police have appealed for anyone with information on Shara’s movements before 1am on Monday to come forward.

Detective Chief Inspector Alastair Orencas from the Homicide Unit said: “We have made some significant progress in our investigation and now have three men in custody.

“However, we still want to hear from anyone who saw Shara or spoke to her in the hours leading up to her death.

“We understand she was involved in sex work around the Soho Road, Birmingham area and believe she may have been driven to Woodburn Road from that location.

“If you have any footage or information, and haven’t yet come forward, please contact us.”

In response, the force has confirmed it will be boosting police presence in the area where Shara was found.

A statement on its website read: “Officers are increasing patrols in the area where Shara was found and around Soho Road as reassurance so please do speak to us about any concerns.

“If you’d rather not tell us who you are, but want to help, you can contact independent charity Crimestoppers 100% anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
