- Title:
- File 6/22 Correspondence regarding Finger Print training to Bahrain Government servants
- Scope & Content:
-
The file contains correspondence regarding training in fingerprinting for Bahrain Government officials. The correspondence is between the following:
- Charles Geoffrey Prior, Political Agent, Bahrain;
- Shaikh Hamad bin 'Isa al-Khalifah [Ḥamad bin ‘Īsá Āl Khalīfah], ruler of Bahrain;
- Charles Dalrymple Belgrave, Adviser to the Government of Bahrain;
- Police departments in Sind and Rajputana;
- the Political Resident in the Persian Gulf;
- British Consulate in Basrah;
- British Vice-Consulate in Mohammerah [Korramshahr];
- Government of India, Foreign and Political Department.
The papers cover the enquiries into and arrangements for a deputation of an expert in fingerprinting from India to train officials in Bahrain. The deputation is postponed indefinitely (beyond the time period covered by the file) due to lack of government revenue caused by the collapse of the pearl trade. Advice is sought by the Political Agent, Bahrain, from the police department in Basrah.
