A Baloch Sukhtbar lost his life following the overturning of his vehicle in the border area of Routek in Mirjaveh county.
According to Kolbarnews, on Monday, July 22, 2024, the vehicle of a Sukhtbar overturned in the border area of Routek in Mirjaveh county, resulting in the driver’s death due to severe injuries.
The identity of the Sukhtbar has been confirmed as Emanullah Nasrouyi, approximately 33 years old, married, and the father of one child, residing in Mirjaveh.
The report states that Emanullah’s vehicle overturned on the Routek-Tehlap road due to a tire burst while driving. He sustained severe injuries and was initially taken to Mirjaveh hospital. However, due to the lack of adequate medical facilities at Mirjaveh hospital and his critical condition, he was being transferred to a hospital in Zahedan.
Unfortunately, he succumbed to his injuries on the way.
Sukhtbari is considered an unconventional and hazardous job that many Baluch people in Baluchistan are forced into due to the lack of suitable and stable employment. Accidents, vehicle rollovers, and direct shootings by military and security forces are some of the dangers that Sukhtbars face.
According to reports from Baluch activists, in the first six months of 2024, at least 133 Baluch Sukhtbars have died from shootings by military forces, traffic accidents, and vehicle fires, with another 80 injured in these incidents, including nine children.
