I have the honour to refer to your Confidential letter
No.P*337-n/3Q of 10th June 1931.
Whether the proposed treaty were to apply to the whole
of Persia or merely to the frontier districts, I am of the
opinion that no advantage whatsoever would be gained “by the
Government of India "by its conclusion.
The desirability of such a treaty has been pressed on
the Persian Government by the G-eneral Officer Commanding in
the Sarhad, who has frequently mentioned the matter to me.
I have always replied that it is a matter which should
be taken up by the Governments concerned and that I could
not enter into any local arrangements whatsoever* At
present the u.O.C. is obliged to adopt a moderate attitude
towards the Baluchi tribes, since unduly harash treatment
causes them to flee the country to British territory. Once

About this item
- Content
Correspondence and other papers relating to controls on cross-border movements and extradition measures on the frontier between Persia [Iran] and India (specifically British Baluchistan, part of present-day Pakistan), discussed between the British Government, Government of India, and Persian Government. The papers refer to a number of cross-border incidents, including murders and robbery committed in Persian territory, in which the perpetrators subsequently absconded into British Baluchistan. The papers include British protests to the Persian Government, in response to incursions by Persian levies into British territories, and correspondence exchanged between British officials, indicating a reluctance to sign an extradition treaty with Persia.
The file’s principal correspondents include: the British Legation at Tehran (Robert Henry Clive; Reginald Hervey Hoare; Charles Dodd); representatives of the Persian Government, including the Minister for Foreign Affairs (Mirza Mohamed Ali Khan Feroughi); the British Consul at Sistan and Kain [Ka’īn] (Major Clive Kirkpatrick Daly); the Governor General and Chief Commissioner in Baluchistan (Alexander Norman Ley Cater); the Foreign Secretary to the Government of India (Evelyn Berkeley Howell).
