BAGHDAD. ^ JULY, 1934
Sir
I am directed to invite the attention of the
Hon*ble the Resident to telegrazn Ko. 224 of 18-5-24
addressed to him by His Excellency the High Commissioner,
with a copy to Kuwait, on th* subject of Dhaidan ibn
Hithlain. The High Commissioner conveyed therein the
information that the 1 Iraq Government had undertaken,
as far as desert conditions permitted, to prevent the
entry of Dhaidan and his follower? into ’Iran territory.
This was in r* ply to th*» Resident’s telerram No. 162/3
of 17-5-24 in which he stated that Ibn 3a f ud wee anxious
tc punish Dheidan for the raid he had committed in
Kuwait territories but ^ss afraid to do eo lest he should
take refuge with the ’Iraq Government.
, His Excellency has had no information to show
th c t the message was conveyed to Ibn Sa’ud and h? holds
the mettwr to be one of considerable imuortance, a& ibn
8 a’ud in his letters of apology to Ibn Sabbah repeatedly
justifies himself for his inability to control his
/
tribesmen by complaining th^t^he proceeds against them
they will find asylum in the ’Iraq. His Excellency refers
to Ibn Sa’ud*s letter? to Ibn Sabbah of 26-4-24 and of
8-5-24; in the latter h*» would se*m to claim Yusuf al
Mansur as his subject, e claim which the ’Iraq Government
would not admit, though it is conceivable that '"hen he
speaks of ’’chaetizinr his subjects'* he alludes to some
of the Akhwan Yutair who had joined Yusuf in raiding the
Dhafir in September, 1923.
