Notes
This file relates to former occupants of the posts Wali of Khasab and Shaikh of Khasab, in the Sultanate of Muscat and Oman. The correspondence primarily concerns Shaikh Hasan bin Muhammad, a former Shaikh of Khasab who was sentenced to twenty-two months' imprisonment by the Government of Muscat and Oman and then sent to Debai [Dubai] by the Sultan of Muscat and Oman, on the understanding that Shaikh Said bin Maktum, Ruler of Debai, would keep Shaikh Hasan under surveillance and prevent his return to Khasab. The correspondence documents Shaikh Hasan's subsequent escape from Debai to Khasab, his removal to Bokha, and his eventual return to custody in Debai. The file concludes with the decision to return Shaikh Hasan to Muscat.
