Memorandum: -
Reference your memorandum No. C/580 dated 10th June.
Hassan bin Qamba was a member of a crew in a Persian
sailing boat, Nakhuda Ali bin Mohamed Irani. A Bahrain
Nakhuda, Ali bin Abdulla Nairn!, saw him on the customs
pier and informed the Passport head natur that he was an
Iranian policeman and the man who had detained him in
Maghu. Hassan was taken to the Police Station as it was
thought he might be an informer or agent. After being
questioned by the Superintendent of Police there seemed
no reason to suppose that he was a foreign agent. He was
released and the Nakhuda was ox*dered to file a case against
him. A civil case was beared in the court of the Indian
Assistant and Hassan was discharged and returned to Persia
in the boat in which he had come. While in Bahrain he was
confined to his boat, because he stated that he was one of
the Persian Police. He had no visa but was one of the seven
members of crew of the Persian dhow belonging to Nakhuda
Ali bin Mphamed Irani.
The crew were registered on arrival in the usual way.
There is nothing to prevent members of the Iranian
Police or military forces coming to Bahrain as crew of
dhows and landing in Bahrain.
Members of the Bahrain Police frequently spend tl
leave in Persia.
Adviser to the Government.
