The 36 year old Mirza Ali Khan, known as the Fakir of Ipi, eluded three British brigades at Arsal Kot Waziristan after a three month hideout. British officials say the operation failed to capture him but forced him to move his sacred work. The Fakir leads a loyal band on the Khyber Pass frontier and seeks to oppose British rule through raids and ambushes.
