Following a car accident and fire on the Roodbar-Kohanouj road, three individuals, including a Sukhtbar, were injured.
According to Kolbarnews, on Thursday evening, May 9, 2024, three citizens, including a Sukhtbar, were injured and transferred to the hospital as a result of a collision between a Pride Sukhtbari car and a Peugeot Pars car on the Roodbar to Kohanouj road.
The identities of these individuals are not known at the time of filing this report.
According to the report, three occupants of the two cars had exited their vehicles before they caught fire, and two occupants of the Peugeot Pars car were in good condition. However, the condition of the occupant of the Sukhtbari car was serious.
Sukhtbari is considered one of the unconventional and dangerous jobs that many Baloch people in Balochistan have resorted to out of lack of suitable and stable employment. Accidents, vehicle overturning, and direct shootings by military and security forces are some of the dangers that threaten the lives of Sukhtbars in this profession. According to reports from Baloch activists in 2023, at least 172 Baloch Sukhtbars lost their lives due to shootings by military forces, traffic accidents, and vehicle fires, and 42 others were injured in these incidents, including 11 children
