Ghulam Nabi Khan was an Afghan military general and the Envoy to France in 1926. He was invited to what he thought was a meeting with Nadir Shah where he could persuade him to allow King Amanullah to return to Afghanistan. Instead he was beaten to death and his six-year-old son was jailed.
Ghulam Nabi Khan, a Yusufzai Sardar was also an ambassador to Moscow and was killed without trial by the authority of King Nadir Shah. His father was Ghulam Haider Khan, a General under the Iron Amir, Abdur Rahman Khan.
