Border forces at the Kalagan border in Saravan detained and assaulted a Baloch motorcyclist Sukhtbar for hours.
According to Kolbarnews, on Tuesday, July 9, 2024, a Baloch Sukhtbar was assaulted by Saravan border forces.
The identity of this Baloch Sukhtbar has been reported as “Ahmad Molazahi” from Saravan.
It is said that the border forces ambushed motorcyclist Sukhtbar on their route and arrested Ahmad Molazahi, who was returning from the border.
According to the report, after detaining this Sukhtbar, the military forces beat him with chains and whips and released him after hours of detention.
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.
