His proceedings at first were little noticed; but when fort after fort fell into his hands the rebellion was too serious to be overlooked. Persuaded that Shiváji was carrying out instructions received from Sháhji, the king sent orders to Báji Ghorpadé, jáhgirdár of Mudhol, who was serving with the latter in the Karnátak, to seize the rebel's father. This was effected by treachery, and Sháhji was sent a prisoner to Bijápur. Here he was desired to suppress his son's rebellion; and his assurances that Shiváji had been acting in contravention of his wishes and that he was unable to restrain him were disbelieved. He was accordingly shut in a stone dungeon the door of which was built up, leaving only a small opening, and he was assured that this also would be closed if his son did not submit. - [Previous: c11.68](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11.68) - [Next: c11.70](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11.70) - [Up: c11](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11.69](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11.69) · Pramāṇa
