A Baloch Sukhtbar died after his vehicle overturned on the Bazman–Iranshahr road.
According to Kolbarnews, on the evening of Sunday, November 16, 2025, a Sukhtbari vehicle overturned on the Bazman–Iranshahr route, resulting in the death of its driver due to severe injuries.
The identity of the deceased Baloch Sukhtbar has been reported as Nazir Ahmad Hot (Damani), 37 years old, son of Mahim, married and a father, from Iranshahr.
According to the report, while traveling on the Bazman–Iranshahr road, Nazir Ahmad veered off the route for unknown reasons, causing his vehicle to overturn. The accident was so severe that he died before rescue teams arrived.
Sukhtbari is considered one of the unconventional and dangerous jobs that many Baloch people in Balochistan have been forced to turn to due to the lack of suitable and stable employment. Accidents, vehicle overturns, and direct gunfire from military and security forces are among the dangers that threaten the lives of these Sukhtbars. According to reports from Baloch activists, in the year 2024, at least 375 Baloch Sukhtbars have been injured or lost their lives due to shootings by military forces, traffic accidents, and vehicle fires. Of this number, 240 Sukhtbars were killed and 135 were injured, representing a 55% increase in the number of killed and injured Sukhtbars compared to the year 2023.
