Co P5 T i n translation of a note from the Direotor-'^eneral
of the . inistry for foreign Affairs to His I'ajestr's
.minister, Tehran.
Ho. 80 78 dated Uehr 20th 1^08 (October 12th t 1929).
Monsieur le Llinistre,
In reply to four Excellency's two notes of
Shahrivar 19th last (September 10th) No. ^10 and Kehr 4th
(bepteraber 26th] No. ^42 I have the honour to state that
in regard to liaji Kamadi son of Ha^i Abood I have enquired
about ^he facts from the Governor of Khuzestan through
the Ministry of the Interior as I was ignorant of the
details. If it is found out that a British passport has
been issued to him in India, which has been rightly
confiscated, the passport will be sent to His Majesty's
legation for return to the issuing office.
At this Juncture I deem it necessary to invite
four Excellency's attention to Llirza Hassan Khan Mushar's
note to Mr. llonson, the then British Charge d ? Affaires
dated Lalve 8th 1^0^ (28th January 1925) No. 1^279,
purporting to the Persian nationality of the said Hamadi
in question. Your referring to the discussions going
on with His Highness the Minister of the Court in the
course of Your Excellency's note ITo. ^42 gives me occasion
to point out that the said discussions in no way alter the
views of my Government in regard to the British
authorities not being entitled to interfere with the
affairs concerning the Bahreinis.
I avai1 e tc.,
(Signed) Hassan Ali Khan CJhaffari.
