The file consists of correspondence concerning a compensation claim for the murder of Aga Farrukh Shah (also spelt Agha Farrukhshah) at Kerman during the First World War. Aga Farrukh Shah was supposedly working in the interest of the British Government at the time of his death, and the first claim made by Mrs Aga Faruksha in 1919 was for a pension from the Government of India. This being denied it was forwarded to prefer a claim on the Persian Government. Copies of the original claim are included.
