Scope and content
I have been informed by Amir Beg Khan Bahadur that a Dutchman of Chochrah was involved in the murder of a person who had lodged a complaint against him in the criminal court at Hoogli. He later on sent his peshkar and took the Qazi and his associate to the house of the chief trader/Fakhr al-Tujjar. Investigations have proved that he is guilty of this crime. I am writing to you so that you could warn the Dutch not to interfere in the process of the court.
