- Scope & Content:
-
This file relates to an Ajman chief named Khalid ibn Hithlain [Khālid bin Muḥammad bin Ḥithlayn, also transliterated as Khalid bin Hathlain in the file], who is suspected of planning anti-Saudi activities. The correspondence documents the efforts of the British authorities – at the Saudi Government's request – to monitor Khalid ibn Hithlain's movements and prevent him from using either Kuwait or Bahrain as a base from which to plan hostile actions. The file concludes with extracts from the Kuwait Political Agency's intelligence summaries, which report Khalid ibn Hithlain's return to Saudi Arabia in January 1935, following a general political amnesty granted by the Saudi Government.
Notable correspondents include the following: His Majesty's Chargé d’Affaires to Jedda (Albert Spencer Calvert); His Majesty's Minister at Jedda (Sir Andrew Ryan); the Secretary of State for the Colonies (Philip Cunliffe-Lister); the Saudi Minister for Foreign Affairs [Fayṣal bin ‘Abd al-‘Azīz Āl Sa‘ūd]; the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The file includes a divider which gives a list of correspondence references contained in the file by year. This is placed at the back of the correspondence.
