Qaleh Ganj: Baloch Sukhtbar Dies in Vehicle Overturn and Fire

Javad Bamari, a 28-year-old Baloch Sukhtbar, lost his life in Qaleh Ganj after his Nissan pickup truck overturned and caught fire.

According to Kolbarnews, on Friday, May 16, 2025, Javad Bamari, a Baloch Sukhtbar, died following the overturn and subsequent fire of his Nissan pickup in Qaleh Ganj County.

Javad Bamari, a resident of Jolgeh Chah Hashem in Delgan County, was 28 years old, married, and the father of one child.
According to a relative, Javad had loaded fuel and was on his way to Iranshahr when the accident occurred near Qaleh Ganj. His vehicle veered off the road, overturned, and then caught fire.

The source added, “He died instantly due to the severity of the burns caused by the fire.”

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.
