See Field Marshal Lord Roberts: Forty-one Years in India (Richard Bentley & Son, London 1911); volume ii, p.239, mention of MHK in this source is a reference to the steps taken by Roberts following his entry into Kabul on 12 October 1879 (Anglo-Afghan War of 1879) when he immediately imposed martial law: ‘I now appointed Major-General James Hills, V.C., to be Governor of Kabul for the time being, associating with him the able and respected Mahomedan gentleman, Nawab Ghulam Hussein Khan, as the most likely means of securing for the present order and good government in the city. I further instituted two Courts: one political, consisting of Colonel Macgregor, Surgeon-Major Bellew, and Mahomed Hyat Khan, a Mahomedan member of the Punjab Commission, and an excellent Persian and Pushtu scholar, to inquire into the complicated circumstances which led to the attack on the Residency, and to ascertain, if possible, how far the Amir and his Ministers were implicated; the other, a military Court, with Brigadier-General Massy as president, for the trial of those Chiefs and soldiers accused of having taken part in the actual massacre.’
