On March 25, 2017, self-identified ISIS-K (Daesh) fighters abducted five civilians—a man, his wife, and their three children—in Firozkoh (Chaghcharan) Chagcharan district following a tribal dispute. The family was held captive for four days before being released on March 29 after negotiations conducted by tribal elders. This incident demonstrates how ISIS-K exploited local disputes to assert control and intimidate civilian populations.
