Nazar Ali Nazroo Narejo (Sindhi: نظِرُو ناريجو) was a notorious dacoit in Sindh, Pakistan. He was a symbol of terror for over two decades. He was held responsible and was charged with about 200 cases and was involved in plundering, highway robbery, kidnapping for ransom, murder and other crimes around the areas of Sindh and Punjab.[1] The government announced a PKR 20 million reward for his capture.
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.
