### [75.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.75.2)

At this time a farmán arrived from the Imperial Court, directing Muzaffar Khán to apprehend and put to death a servant of Mírzá Muhammad Hakím named Roshan Beg, who had left Kábul and gone into Bengal, and to send his head to Court. This Roshan Beg was among the Káksháls, and Muzaffar Beg issued an order for his execution. He also spake some harsh words about Baba Khan Kakshal. The soldiers who were present, and especially Baba Khan and the Kakshals, trembled together, and resolved upon mutiny. They shaved their heads, put on their high caps, and broke out into revolt. Crossing the river, they went to the city of Gaur, celebrated in old times under the name of Lakhnauti. There they collected men, and having found property of Muzaffar Khan in several places, they took it or destroyed it. Muzaffar Khan collected boats, and sent Hakim Abu-l Fath and Patar Das, with an army against them on the banks of the river. When the disaffection of the Kakshals was reported to the Emperor, he sent a farman to Muzaffar Khan, in which he said that the Kakshals had long been servants of the throne, and that it was not right to hurt them; they were therefore to be conciliated and encouraged with hopes of the Emperor's favour, and the matter of their jagirs was to be settled. The farman arrived at the time when Muzaffar Khan was in face of the insurgents.
