British Legation,
Tehran.
13th April, 1931.
Monsieur le Ministre,
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of Your
Highness’ Note No. 2033/21012581 of April 8th (Pfirvardin
18th) regarding the escape of a certain Leshkar Khan to
Indian territory. I am forwarding a copy of this note
to the Government of India for whatever action they may
deem possible in the circumstances.
2. At the same time I venture to point out that in the
absence of any extradition agreement I am unable to say
at this stage whether, on the strength of the legal
evidence which I understand is now being collected, the
/overnment of India will be in a position to accede to an
eventual request for this men’s extradition; nor whether,
in view of the fact that it must be now at least five weeks
since the accused fled into British territory, it wili
prove possible for the frontier authorities to trace his
present whereabouts with a view to keeping him under
surveillance.
I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to Your
Highness the assurance of my highest consideration.
(Signed) H.H.Olive.
His Highness
Murza Mohamed Ali Khan Peroughi,
Minister for Foreign Affairs.
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).
