Mun‘im Khān and Muhammad Qāsim Khān, another conspirator, fled across the Jumna and made for Rūpar and Māchīwārā, intending to escape to Kābul, where they hoped that Ghanī Khān, the former’s son, would be able to protect them, but they were captured near Sarwat in the Dūāb and handed over to Sayyid Mahmūd Bārha, who sent them back to Āgra, whence an emissary had already been despatched to convey to them an assurance that they should not be molested. On their arrival at Āgra they were not only pardoned, but Mun‘im Khān was permitted to retain his title of Khān Khānān and was reinstated as chief minister of the empire.
