Ghulam Nabi Khan was an Afghan military general and the Envoy to France in 1926.[2][3] He was invited to what he thought was a meeting with Nadir Shah where he could persuade him to allow King Amanullah to return to Afghanistan. Instead he was beaten to death and his six-year-old son was jailed.[4]
Ghulam Nabi Khan, a Yusufzai Sardar was also an ambassador to Moscow and was killed without trial by the authority of King Nadir Shah.[5] His father was Ghulam Haider Khan, a General under the Iron Amir, Abdur Rahman Khan.[6] One of his household servants was Abdul Khaliq Hazara, who assassinated Nadir Shah in 1933.
