Activism Sammi is involved in advocating against enforced disappearances in Balochistan by law enforcement agencies. She walked from Quetta to Islamabad in 2014, demanding the safe release of her father, Dr. Deen Muhammad, and other missing individuals. Since then, she has played a key role in the Baloch resistance movement, addressing issues such as enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and human rights violations in Balochistan by Pakistani institutions.

On 8 September 2024, Sammi was barred from leaving the country while she was about to travel from Pakistan to Oman. She was placed on the Exit Control List (ECL) by authorities. According to Baluch, no specific reason was provided for the travel restriction, and is believed that she was stopped due to her human rights activism in Balochistan.
