The government announced a PKR 20 million reward for his capture.

Early life

Nazroo Narejo studied sociology at the University of Sindh, Jamshoro in the 1970s. He was a decent and intellectual student but due to his father's encounter with the shadow feudal system he turned to crime and made a stand against feudalism. His father had a master's degree in sociology as well as LL.B.

Death

Nazroo, along with his accomplices was killed in the Garhi Yaseen area of Shaikarpur in an encounter with Tanveer Ahmed Tunio, SSP of the Sukkur Region Sindh Police. His brother-in-law Sarwar, also known as Saroo Narejo and son Rab Rakhio Narejo were also killed during this operation. The operation claimed the lives of policemen Mujeeb Chachar and Haji Ismi Chachar.

Timeline
