HUSAIN QULĪ KHĀN had been obliged by the flight of the two Mīrzās into the Punjab to raise the siege of Nagarkot, but had first exacted from Bidai Chand complete submission to Akbar. Having defeated the Mīrzās he carried his prisoners, 300 in number, to Fathpur Sīkrī where the head of Ibrāhīm Husain was laid before the throne, and Mas‘ūd Husain, with his eyes sewn up, was delivered to Akbar, who, having caused the stitches to be cut, imprisoned the rebel in Gwalior. The other prisoners, clad in the skins of cows, asses, hogs and dogs, formed a grotesque pageant, after which some were released, others imprisoned, and others put to death with fantastic tortures. Husain Qulī Khān received the title of Khān Jahān.
