Bagdad Pachalic Affairs
- Scope & Content:
-
This part of the volume consists of copies of enclosures to a despatch from the Government of Bombay, Secret Department, to the Secret Committee, Number 19 of 1850, dated 3 April 1850.
The enclosed papers, dated between 9 January and 14 February 1850, concern affairs in the Ottoman Pachalic [Pashalik] of Bagdad [Baghdad]. They comprise correspondence between Lieutenant Arnold Burrowes Kemball, Acting Political Agent in Turkish Arabia [Ottoman Iraq]; the Government of Bombay; the Government of India, Foreign Department; and Sir Stratford Canning, British Ambassador to the Ottoman Porte, Constantinople [Istanbul].
The papers cover several matters, including:
- Kemball's recent request for the presence of East India Company ships at Mohamrah [Khorramshahr] to support the work of the Turco [Ottoman Iraq]-Persian Boundary Commission
- The return of Abdi Pasha [Abdul-Karim Pasha, or ‘Abd al-Karīm Pāshā], the Governor of the Pachalic to Bagdad from Hindieh [Al-Hindiyah]
- The financial malpractices of former Governor, Nijib Pasha [Mehmed Necib Pasha, or Muḥammad Najīb Pāshā]
- The announcement by the Ottoman Government of a full census of the population of the Pachalic and the suspicions of the people about the Government's motivation for doing so.
