Khan Bahadur Khan Rohilla


Khan Bahadur Khan Rohilla was the grandson of Hafiz Rahmat Khan. He formed his own government in Bareilly in the 1857 Indian revolt against the British. When the Indian Rebellion of 1857 failed, Bareilly, too, was subjugated by the British. He escaped to Nepal where the Nepalese captured him and turned him over to the British. Khan Bahadur Khan Rohilla was sentenced to death and hanged in the Kotwali on 24 February 1860.
