24. Condition of the Country .—Kuchan and Bujnurd are in a very unsettled
condition. Khuddu is still active, and Shuja-ud-Daulah is making energetic
efforts to regain the Governorship of Kuchan. That he is responsible for
liuddu s activities appears now to be certain, and the steps taken by the Chief
oi Bujnurd to capture the robber chief seem to have come to nothing, mainly
owing to his supply of ammunition and the armament of his men being greatly
interior to those of the robber gang. The position is not improved by the fact
that some influential persons in Kuchan are also assisting the outlaws.
At the Bujnurd Chief’s request a small and insufficient amount of extra
ammunition has been sent to him from Meshed. Meanwhile the collection of
revenue in these districts is practically at a stand-still.
25. The Minister of the Interior has telegraphed to the Chief of Buinurd
ordering him to arrest Yirdi and Ismail Khan, the murderers of Amir Azam, the
Go\ernor of Shahrud, some months ago, who have recently, in company with
other desperadoes, raided the village of Damghan.
