Existence checks before building: name greps for Nowroz, Nauroz and Nawroz across data/person on origin/main returned no record of this man (the Afghan cricketer Nawroz Mangal is a different man), and the QID Q6981322 grep returned no hit. No relations are written: his sons and nephews who were arrested with him are not named in the sources and have no person records, and his headship of the Zehri is an office, not a relation.
