Granaaz Marri and her children were detained in a private jail by Sardar Abdul Rehman Khetran since 2019.

Since last two years, a man Khan Mohammad Marri had been claiming that his wife and children were illegally detained, sexually abused and tortured by Sardar Abdul Rehman Khetran and his men in Sardar’s private jail in Barkhan since 2019.
Few days ago a video appeared on social media in which Granaaz Marri, the wife of Khan Mohammad Marri, was pleading to be freed from Sardar Abdul Rehman’s detention.
It appears the video irked the mighty Sardar Abdul Rehman Khetran, leading to brutal murder of Granaaz and her two sons. Granaaz’s other children are still believed to be under Sardar Khetran’s detention.
Granaaz’s corpse was found in same clothes she wore in Sardar’s house.

This is not the first time Khetran has detained women in his jails.
In 2014, authorities recovered 7 detainees including 2 women from his jails. He was also jailed in 2006 for ordering forced marriages of two minor girls. But he always gets away due to his powerful connections.
