A collision involving a Sukhtbari Nissan pickup, a Peugeot 405, and a motorcycle resulted in the deaths of three individuals, including a Baloch Sukhtbar.
According to Kolbarnews, on the evening of Sunday, January 12, 2025, on the Mehristan-Suran highway, a collision involving a Sukhtbari Nissan pickup, a Peugeot 405, claiming three lives including a Baloch Sukhtbar.
The deceased Baloch Sukhtbar has been identified as Ebrahim Dehmardeh, 37, son of Noor Mohammad, from Zahedan.
The identities of the other deceased individuals remain unknown at the time of reporting.
Sukhtbari considered one of the unconventional and dangerous occupations that many Baloch people in Balochistan are forced to engage in due to the lack of suitable and stable employment opportunities. Accidents, vehicle overturns, and direct shootings by military and security forces are some of the dangers that threaten the lives of Sukhtbars. According to reports by Baloch activists, in 2024, at least 240 Baloch Sukhtbars lost their lives due to shootings by military forces, traffic accidents, and vehicle fires, while 135 others were injured in these incidents, 19 of whom were children.
