The rank of Naik is equivalent to corporal. He was son of Ali Bahadur, of Butigaram (Siri Kote), Hazara, Pakistan and husband of Rakhim Jan, of Butigaram. His death registration gives his name as Rahman and states that he died from acute tuberculosis (4 months). His death was registered by the doctor who certified his death G.W.Palmer.

Abdul Rakhman is buried beside his colleague Gulam Nabi. Between their gravestones a stone was erected in 1960 to Ram Bhopal. He was a commercial traveller, who had lived at the ‘Mound.’ It is believed that he is not actually buried there and having died in Inverness this memorial was placed next to his fellow countrymen even though they were of different faiths.

The inscriptions on the gravestone, in Arabic, reads “Ho Val Ghaffoor – He, the Forgiving One” and below from the Quran “Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Ilayhi Raji’oon – Indeed we belong to Him (God) and Indeed we return to Him.”
