an information that Mirza bin Berkat was in Fujairah.
Before leaving Kalba I went to see Haj Nasib but this
man also showed reluctanee to tell anything. He stated
that he knew nothing about Mirza asw. He said that he
never got in.touch with him after he got his children
back from him. Mirza had stolen Haj Nasib's children
in 1940 and sold them in Bremi. The man then went to
Bremi and got his children released. I left Kalba for
Shanas at 5.p.m. and reached Shanas at 7.p.m. Halted
in Shanas as it was getting dark. In Shanas I was told
that more than three months ago some men from the Jawabar
tribe camplained to the Wali that one Baluch by name Mirz*
was committing piracy in the Sultan’s territory, 'ftje
immediately wrote to Hamad Al-Sharqi informing him that
he would be responsible for any incident that Mirza might
cause to happen but the Shaikh replied that he knew
nothing about Mirza bin Berkat. I left Shanas next day
at about 8 *a.m. and arrived Sohar at about 12.a.m. I
made enquiries in Sohar for the second time f^eHr^vsrtoas
but met with no succes. I left Sohar at S.p.m.
the same day and halted at Saham. From Saham I left
next day at 7.a.m. and reached Muscat at 9.ptm.
