The police declared Iman Al-Sarraj’s death a homicide after they found her remains in a freezer at Brandon Sanders’ house. Her family believes she was beaten to death, as per ABC7. Iman Al-Sarraj is an 18-year-old, who was born to an immigrant family. Her father, Khalil Sarraj, revealed to the Chicago Sun Times that his daughter had a troubled childhood.
Iman eventually ran away from home, and her father last heard from her in August 2022, when he tried to contact her to meet with a relative, which Iman turned down. The news of her death shocked her family. The victim’s sister, Vanessa Al-Sarraj, told ABC7:
“It’s hard, because we all grew up separately, and, I guess, we’re connected again through death, so it’s really hard. The last time I talked with her, she was struggling, and I tried to help her, and if I can do little things to remember her, I always will…Gardening and planting flowers for her and letting them blossom and bloom is what’s helping me keep going.”
