With reference to the correspondence ending wdth my telegram No. 745-
Confidential, dated the 24th August 1911, l) have the honour to forward, for the
information of the Government of India, copy of a letter No. 155, dated the
24th August 1911, from the Political Agent, Chagai, giving an account of the
information which has reached him regarding the conduct of Persian officials
at Bug.
2. It will be seen that on hearing of the arrival of the Persian party Major
Webh-Ware’s representative, under his instructions, requested them to remove
themselves at once, which they did, leaving a representative in the person of
one Nazar Jan. Enquiries having shown that the property claimed by the
Persians had clearly been robbed from Persian territories, the whole of it was
restored to Nazar Jan.
3. There remain in our custody at "present 19 men who are accused of
having brought the stolen property to Bug, and also 10 camels which are con
nected with an entirely separate case and which are believed to have been looted
from Kain.
4. I am directing Major Webb-Ware to put the 19 prisoners hack across
the Persian border, and am asking him to enquire from the British Consul in
Seistan whether the latter can arrange to take over the 10 camels still in our
possession.
Letter No. 155 (Confidential), dated Quetta, the 24th August 1911.
From—The Political Agent, Chagai,
To—The First Assistant to the Hon'ble the Agent to the Governor-General in
Baluchistan.
I have the honour to invite a reference to the telegraphic correspondence
on the subject of the appearance on the Kacha-Robat frontier of a body of
Persians, and to say thao I have just received the details from the Officiating
Native Assistant, Kacha.
2. The facts of this incident are briefly as follows :—
On the 8th instant a body of Seistan Jambaz sowars arrived at Bug,
which is situated at the head of the Piran river. The Native
Assistant on hearing of their arrival communicated with me and
received instructions to proceed with sufficient levies to Bug,
ascertain what the deputation of this party was due to, prevent
any violation of British territory, and, in pointing out that the
presence of Persian sowars at Bug conflicted with the terms of
the 1905 Tehran agreement, request courteously but firmly their
withdrawal.
