Criminal allegations
The 2018 triple murder case drew widespread attention in Sindh after advocate and activist Umme Rubab Chandio accused PPP lawmakers Sardar Ahmed Khan Chandio and Burhan Khan Chandio, along with several others, of involvement in the killings of her father Mukhtiar Ahmed Chandio, grandfather Karamullah Chandio, and uncle Kamaluddin Chandio in Mehar. The accused denied the allegations and maintained their innocence throughout the trial.[3]
