Abdul Khaliq known as Abdul Khaliq Hazara (Шаблон:Lang-fa), (1916 — December 18, 1933) was an ethnic Hazara student who assassinated Mohammed Nadir Shah, King of Afghanistan on 8 November 1933, during an award distribution ceremony. He was quickly arrested, tortured and later executed by quartering along with most of his relatives.
The assassination of Nadir Khan may have been done in revenge for the taxes and execution of Hazaras,[1] and for actions of Ghulam Nabi Charkhi who was a former Afghanistan ambassador to Moscow who took part in the Afghan civil war of 1928-29 as a supporter of the previous ruler of Afghanistan, the reform-minded Amanullah Khan.[2]

Assassination of the King
Abdul Khaliq plotted to kill King Nadir Khan. The first attempt was at the Independence Day gathering at the Id Gah Mosque, but Abdul Khaliq did not attend. A few months later, opportunity arose when Nadir Shah invited athletes of his high school to the palace to distribute medals for their achievements. Abdul Khaliq was one of the attendees and saw no security units at the gates. Abdul Khaliq rode his bike back to the Pamir Cinema area and brought with him a gun that belonged to his friend Is'haq Sherdel.Шаблон:Citation needed
Abdul Khaliq returned with a Nagant M1895 loaded with 6 bullets of 7.62×38mmR wrapped in a handkerchief hidden in his pocket. He stood behind Is'haq Sherdel and Mahmood. The national flag was lowered and Nadir Shah entered the rose garden. He examined the medals table and walked over towards the students. Abdul Khaliq reached into his pocket and pulled out the gun, aimed at Nadir Shah and pulled the trigger. The first bullet hit Nadir in his mouth, the second shot pierced Nadir's heart, and the third shot cut through Nadir's lung. The guards rushed towards Abdul Khaliq and a fourth bullet hit a guard. Abdul Khaliq then threw the gun as the guards chased him.Шаблон:Citation needed
Shah Mahmood ordered the arrest of over 400 "Nejat High school" students and by executive decree ordered all students to be put to death. A soldier in the national guard convinced Mahmood that the students were innocent, and they were then released.Шаблон:Citation needed
Execution
Abdul Khaliq was imprisoned and under torture gave up the names of his accomplices. Abdul Khaliq was given a trial in which he named all his friends and family members as accomplices. The strength of these claims has since been questioned by the lone surviving member of Abdul Khaliq's family. He was eventually sentenced to death along with 16 others. The majority of Abdul Khaliq's family were taken to the Deh Mazang prison.Шаблон:Citation needed
Sixteen nooses were prepared at the execution site. Abdul Khaliq was brought over and was asked with which one of his fingers he squeezed the trigger. He lifted his index finger, and immediately that finger was cut off. He was then questioned which eye he used to aim, upon which they immediately gouged out that eye with a dagger. The authorities eventually tortured Abdul Khaliq to death instead of hanging him.[3] Security officers tortured Abdul Khaliq by cutting his tongue and gouging his eyes and soldiers killed him with bayonets while his family and friends were forced to watch.[4][5]
Abdul Khaliq Hazara is considered to be a martyr by Hazaras and the Solidarity Party of Afghanistan.[6]
