The accused pleaded s "ailty 7 0
He wrote ^ signed with the naae of a woman called 3akineh widow
of Muhai^mad Ghiyad a ygnry petition to the F.A, against the '3haih
Alia containing accusations of a very serious nature.
The woman denied giving him any authority to write or use her name,
Oase arose out of another case. On death of Muhammad Ohiyad Taburuni

of which-he would Have got control of the effects,probably to the
detriment of the widow & minor•shaik Khalaf refused to accept the

document as genuine & recommende d that the sterna of the heirs be
guarded by the Agency, Taburuni appealed to me. The document was
an obvious faice ,illigible ,no signature of an Alim & the writing
erased by a knife in important places & written over. This led

wished to consult the ^adhi Isunni) to get an independent Shara opinion
on the gravity or otherwise of the case in Shara, The ^adhi stated it
was serious & heavily punishable in 3hara, Meanwhile 3h,7-haj-af who

In each of the cases referred to Haji Abdun mhi has
throughout been the moving spirit.He has taken under his wing ^hukerallafeJ
the brother of the deceased in the Bastaki case,has throughout encouraged
Ghulam Ali to defy orders of the Court in case which is now with you,
he was undoubtedly at the bottom of case No 83/722 thefe accused being
his own servant. The selection of these particular cases for the News
paper article is,I think, strong evidence that the article is either
written or inspired by Ha ji Abdun ITabi . ^
