  M i Aram-ul MULK was born about 1890. He died before 1937.

Mehtar Aman-ul MULK [Parents] [scrapbook] 1 was born in 1821 in Chitral, Pakistan. He died on 30 Aug 1892 in Chitral, Pakistan.

MEHTAR AMAN-UL-MULK was a very remarkable man. For forty years his had been the chief personality on the frontier; even in his father's time he had made his mark. It would be worrisome to attempt to unravel the long story of battle and murder, treachery and intrigue, formed by his life. Suffice it to say that he ruled a united Chitral, extending from the borders of Punyal on the one hand to the borders of Kafirstan and Dir on the other, and that the watershed of the Hindu Kush was his northern boundary. He was tributary to Kashmir, and received from that State a subsidy, which had been doubled a few years before our meeting, for his assistance when Gilgit was besieged by the then ruler of Yasin.

A brief account of this incident will give a good idea of the Mehtar's methods. Yasin was ruled by the Kushwakt family, descended from Shah Kushwakt, the brother of Shah Katur, the founder of the Chitral royal family. The families were of course frequently intermarried, and were closely connected. In the year 1880, Pahlwan Bahadur, the Kushwakt ruler of Yasin, and a nephew of Aman-ul-Mulk, who had had an adventurous and stormy career, took it into his head to invade Punyal and to expel the Dogras from Gilgit. The Mehtar encouraged him in every way, promised him assistance, and urged him to enterprise. Pahlwan started and laid siege to Cherkilla, the chief fort of Punyal. The moment he was well committed to his adventure the Mehtar, who had secretly collected his forces, occupied Yasin. The unfortunate Pahlwan was at once deserted by his people, and threw himself on his uncle's mercy. It was of the usual kind, and he died suddenly.

The Mehtar was steeped to the lips in treachery; his hands were crimson with the blood of his nearest relations; two out of three of his brothers he had murdered; the third was in exile in Kabul; his Kushwakt cousins had equal cause to rue his name. He was continuously plotting to get his refugee relations to return to his country, with small success, for they well knew theirs would be a short shift. But such a character cannot be judged by our standards: in wild Mahomedan states it is always and must always be, a case of kill or be killed amongst the sons of a ruling chief after their father's death. Polygamy, and the pernicious habit of parceling out a kingdom into governorships during a ruler's lifetime among the sons, invariably leads to war; and when one brother falls into the hands of another there can be but one result, and that as much in the interest of the state which is saved from war as in that of the conqueror, for "stone death hath no fellow."

The Mehtar ruled his country with a rod of iron, and none dared gainsay his commands. But his rule was not popular - far from it. His oppression extended in all directions: he sold large quantities of timber yearly to Peshawari merchants, and the whole of it was cut and conveyed to the streams by forced labor - of course unpaid for; he interfered in trade, and levied prohibitive taxes on merchandise passing through his country; he bought the goods of passing merchants, if he wanted them, at his own valuation; he sold his subjects into slavery, and sent presents of boys and girls to the Amir and to the neighboring chiefs. At the same time he had many good points. He was deeply religious according to his lights, yet he was no bigot. His view was that so long as a man was a good subject the ruler had no call to interfere with his religious opinions, and while I was in Chitral he soundly rated his son Murad for trying to enforce orthodoxy among the people. He was a kind and indulgent father, and devoted to his small sons, who used to form a pretty group round him when he came to see me, clustering about him with the fearlessness of affection. In a country where the natural vices were rampant he was unstained. He had a religious horror of them, and attributed his success over the Kushwakt chiefs to their depravity, against which God's wrath had kindled. He was much married, not "cursedly confined" to one wife, or for the matter of that, to some dozens of wives and concubines. Like David, he "scattered his maker's image through the land," and at every village you found a small son or heard of a daughter. He had eighty children.

His bearing was royal, his courtesy simple and perfect, he had naturally the "courtly Spanish grace" of a great heredity noble, the dignity and ease of manner which is the birthright of every gentleman in the East, but which were none the less striking from the fact that the Mehtar had never left his mountain fastness. I had read several descriptions of the Mehtar; my lamented friend; Ney Elias, had put him down as in his second childhood, still full of cunning and intrigue, but unable to follow an idea or keep the thread of a conversation, and had warned me that I should find him hopeless to do business with. I believe that Ney Elias had seen the Mehtar during the fast month, which was naturally very trying for an old man. Moreover, when passing through Chitral, Ney Elias had no official position, and the Mehtar may have thought there was nothing to be gained by being attentive to conversation. Any man more thoroughly competent to conduct affairs I have never met.

The above is taken from "The Making of a Frontier" by Algernon Durand, pages 74-79 (London 1899)]

There had been a man named Aman who was the king. Aman had 72 children. When Aman had died, his sons all started killing each other to see who would be the next king. The great-great grandfather of Honzagool had been a man named Bahram, but he had been ruthlessly murdered by his brother Afzal. Then, Afzal had been killed by his uncle. After all this, the descendants of Bahram had all their lands, property and huge estates taken away from them and they were left with nothing.

Prince Burhan-ud DIN [Parents] 1 was born in 1913 in Chitral. He died in Jul 1995 in Delamuth, Chitral, Pakistan. The cause of death was gunshot wound (possibly self inflicted).

One of three commanders of the Indian National Army, who fought for the Japanese and against the British during World War II. Prince Burhan-ud-Din was arrested on the day that Rangoon fell to the British in 1945 and was tried, convicted and sentenced for the death of one of his soldiers, who had been flogged for desertion. However, when India and Pakistan were given their independence in 1947, Prince Burhan-ud-Din was released from prison and became a national hero. This history is described in "The Forgotten Army". Prince Burhan-ud-Din died from a blunderbuss accident in 1996. http://www.shamema.com/burhan.htm

Prince Burhan-ud-Din of Chitral was born in about 1915 and died four years ago of a blunderbuss wound in his own home in Delamuth, Chitral.

He was by far the most famous Chitrali as a result of his service in the Indian National Army during World War II.

I have been hearing stories about this for years but just now have finally seen it is writing. The incident is described in "The Forgotten Army" by Peter Ward Fay, pages 454 to 498.

Burhan-ud-Din was the brother of the Ruler of Chitral. In 1944, he was one of three IOC's of the Indian National Army. The Indian National Army was formed from Indian soldiers who were fighting for the British against the Japanese. They were captured by the Japanese and taken to Singapore. They were given a choice: Join the workers who were building the Death Railway including the Bridge Over the River Kwai, or take up arms and fight against the British on the side of the Japanese.

Prince Burhan-ud-Din became one of the commanders of the group who opted not to build the Bridge Over the River Kwai.

When Rangoon fell to the British on May 3, 1945, Prince Burhan-ud-Din was captured the same day and placed under arrest. He was charged with a wartime autrocity. Many men under his command had often left their posts to go into Rangoon in search of women, often not to return for several days. Prince Burhan-ud-Din, a deeply religious man, was offended by this practice, so he had five of his soldiers rounded up in Rangoon, brought back, and flogged as deserters. One of them, whose name was Joga Singh, died during the flogging. When the British captured the Indian National Army they were naturally anxious to put some of their leaders on trial. Prince Burhan-ud-Din was tried, convicted and sentenced to seven years in prison in 1946. Three other members of the Indian National Army were also convicted but they received lesser sentences.

However, in 1947, India got its independence from England. Burhan-ud-Din and the others were let out of jail and he became a national hero.

I knew him well. Dignitaries coming to Chitral often wanted to meet "The Prince". Although there were one hundred princes of Chitral, when someone spoke of "The Prince" it was known that he was speaking of Prince Burhan-ud-Din.

In 1984, I was in Japan and I read in the Japan Times that Prince Burhan-ud-Din was coming to Japan. I found out that he was staying at the New Otani Hotel, considered the finest hotel in Japan, so I went there and saw him walking through the hotel lobby surrounded by a crush of Japanese dignitaries. I managed to get into the same elevator with him and with all these Japanese officials but I did not say anything.

Through all the crowd in the elevator, I was surprised when he said "There is Ismail Sloan."

The Prince invited me to his hotel room, introduced me to the others and told me to my surprise that this was his first visit to Japan.

However, Prince Burhan-ud-Din was not universally popular in Chitral. When a riot broke out in Chitral in 1982, he was nearly killed by the rioters. Even the circumstances of his death in 1996 are controversial. There is no agreement whether the gunshot wound which killed him in 1997 was an accident, self-inflicted or if somebody shot him.

Unlike most other princes of Chitral, Burhan-ud-Din had only one wife and only one son. His son died at an early age and Prince Burhan-ud-Din was survived only by a beautiful grand-daughter who I met by accident in Mastuj in 1981
