The princely state of Hunza was a cause of great trouble and nuisance in the end of the 19th century for the Political Agent of Gilgit Coloel. The Hunza state possessed of the important mountain passes Mintak pass and Kilik pass, from where Captain Gromechevsky of the Russian Empire entered Hunza in 1888 with six Cossack escorts who were received cordially by the ruler of Hunza Mir Safdar Ali. B

efore his return, he also promised with Mir Safdar Ali to come back with important proposals from his empire. This act of temerity by the Captain Gromechvsky and his host Mir Safdar Ali was considered by the Political Agent of Gilgit as an open threat to the British Empire.
