Haji Abdulaziz usurped the throne when he ambushed his niece in 1780 along with 70 men and invaded the khan's house, capturing him while killing his son Ahmad. Muhammad Husayn was forced to resign between 22 and 29 August and subsequently killed. After three years, his relationship with Ibrahim Khalil khan deteriorated, who in turn sent Muhammad Hasan – who was not executed but kept as hostage – to conquer Shaki. Muhammad Hasan khan invaded Shaki in December. While Abdulaziz fled to Shirvan Khanate. Nevertheless, he was captured by Mustafa khan and handed over to Muhammad Hasan, who on 21 December 1783 killed Haji Abdulaziz khan along with his seven sons in revenge. == References ==
