### [v5.c83.s8.7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.sarkar-1912.v5.c83.s8.7)

"As pirates and interlopers alike sailed under English colours, the whole odium fell on the English. In August 1691 a ship belonging to Abdul Ghafur was taken by them near Surat with nine lakhs of cash on board." The Mughal Government immediately placed a guard on the English factory at Surat and forbade their trade in the country. But one of the pirate crew having been captured and proved to be a Dane, the embargo was removed. \[Biddulph, 13.\]
