The provincial minister was produced before the judicial magistrate in Quetta by the Special Investigation team.

The Magistrate, sending Khetran to jail on judicial remand, ordered the investigation team to produce him before the court in Barkhan on March 9.

Earlier, the district and sessions court in Quetta had granted the police’s crime branch a 10-day physical remand of Khetran.

Sardar Abdur Rehman Khetran is accused of being behind the deaths of a woman and two young men, whose bodies were found in a well near Khetran’s house in Barkhan district.

The incident

The authorities are closest to solving a triple homicide in Balochistan.

The three mysterious bodies discovered in a well in Barkhan continue to be the focus of a Marri tribe sit-in or dharna in Quetta. These two males and a female are, however, unlikely to be the children of Khan Mohammad Marri, as he initially claimed.

The family was rescued by the Levies.

Oddly, though, two of his sons were recovered from Kohlu, two from Dera Bugti, and a son and daughter from Dukki. They were kept at Marri tribesmen’s homes. Khan Mohammad Marri maintains though that the bodies from the well are also his children.

The protesting Marri tribesmen had demanded that an FIR be registered and arrests are conducted. On Friday, the Khan of Kalat’s young brother Senator Prince Omar Ahmadzai Khan said that a Jirga had found that all demands had been met which is why the sit-in should end. Khan of Kalat Mir Suleman is in London but he granted his younger brother permission to hold a Jirga at their residence to tackle the issue.
