v3.c24.67
‘Alī Shāh marched against Jasrat and Shāhī Khān, but foolishly exhausted his army by a forced march, and Jasrat, on being informed of its condition, suddenly attacked it in the hills near the Tattakutī Pass, and overwhelmed it. ‘Alī Shāh’s fate is uncertain. According to one account he escaped, but as he is no more heard of it is more probable that, as is stated in other records, he was captured by Jasrat’s troops.
