Boorhan-ool-Moolk, being of an unwieldy bulk, threw himself for temporary safety into a ditch which runs into the Saburmutty, in the village of Surkech, where he was taken, and, by the King’s orders, trod to death by elephants. Azd-ool-Moolk fled among the Girasias, who, recognising him to be the same person that had on a former occasion plundered them, put him to death. Hissam-ool-Moolk took refuge with his brother Rookn-ood-Deen, the chief magistrate of Puttun, from whence both fled to Malwa; and Suffy-ool-Moolk was taken prisoner; but, as he was not considered so guilty as his confederates, the King spared his life, causing him to be confined in the fort of Diu, where he died. Order being restored, Imad-ool-Moolk requested permission to resign the seals of office, and spend the rest of his days in retirement and devotion; and the King (to convince the world of his attachment to his old minister) appointed his son, Shahab-ood-Deen, to his situation, with the title of Mullik Ashruf. - [Previous: 208.1.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.208.1.4) - [Next: 208.1.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.208.1.6) - [Up: 208.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.208.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.208.1.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.208.1.5) · Pramāṇa
