that they were merchants living Ir. 1 ; ohamatrah* Both were
in poesession of Bahrain paesporte* They had been instructed
by the Perui&n authoritye® to la^ce out Dersxan Nationality
p&pera and had replied that they weir for elgncrs and in

requested to produce their paaeporte for inspection. before
doing so they decided to approach me and ask sy adviceas
they wished to know what to do in t. e event of their
passports bein*. confiscated.
The present Governor of Abadan has only recently
been appointed, I seized the opportunity therefore of
under a covering letter fiom this office asking for their
return when inspected by the officials concerned.
I sent say Interpreter with my letter and the
pass, arts to the Governor and instructed him to explain all
the troubles of the pest and the situation in general, and
told him to say th&t I was only sending the passports
myself to ensure that the Bahrainis did not try to create
trouble by throwing the passports away themselves. ( 1
actually suspect certain persons of doing this or at any
rate persona who never have had documents of saying that
they have been confiscated.)
