V. TRIBaL and pout I cal.
(a) Liravi.
Reference paragraph 124(c) of my report for 3l&t Mays
tyuli Khan haa been sent to Shiraz with other prisoners, it
is believed for execution.
(b) Shabankareh.
As a result of a murder committed in Bonar, steps are
being taken to station gendarmerie there* Previously, no
gendarmerie have been stationed in this district and order
has been maintained by Malik Mansur Khan.
(c) Angali.
Ahmed, the Khan of Angali, has considerably deteriorated
from his last war record. The recent theft of sugar (reported
in paragraph IY of my report for 15th August) was committed
under the nose, and probably with the connivance, of the
guards provided by him, and led by his son, Abbas <^uli Khan.
He has now taken to levying a tax of three tomans on every
bag of smuggled wheat landed at Shif (a small fishing port
to the north of Bushire). Recently a man who refused to pay
this levy, was shot by Ahmed Khan’s tax collector; and as a
result it is understood that gendarmerie are to be stationed
at Shif.
(d) Daahti.
(i) Shaikh Mohamed, of the notorious Ghahkutahi
family, now seems to be intriguing with the Kedkhudas of
M Bulook w (Deh Rud) against Rais Ghulam Razmi. He is said to
have sent his daughter to Captain Isfandiari, Chief of
Gendarmerie, with a request to supply him with arms. It is
not known for certain with what success this romantic move
has met, and at present Chahkutahi has moved up to Shiraz,
where Isfandiari has already gone. The whereabouts of the
daughter are not known.
Rais Ghulam Razmi has written to this Consulate-General,
complaining of the issue of 10 rifles to Chah v utuht, but
independent information is that he has noi been given more
than 3 or 4.
(ii) It is learnt that Ali Ismail has taken retributive •
action against Sheikh Karam, of Ab-dan, who helped isfandiari
in the recent operations (or '•manoeuvres 0 , to use a more apt
description).
(e) Tangistan.
Minor percussions have been caused by two headmen,
Meshhedi Ja’far and Abdul Hussain, both of Ambarek, plunder
ing a caravan near Ahram. This poaching on the preserves of
the Government mamur, Rais Ali Chahpiri, aroused his
indignation, and he proceeded to block up some of the wells
near
