Ali Akbar Bahman

His eldest son Prince Anoushiravan Mirza (1833-1899) returned to Iran, and had a daughter called Princess Malekeh Afagh Khanom (1863 - 26 October 1917), Ali Akbar Bahman's mother.

His stepfather, a politician in the Iranian constitutional movement, encouraged young Ali Akbar in his career and introduced him to several political figures of that time like Yahya Dowlatabadi.

[4][5] From noble birth with his mother a royal princess, the young Mirza Ali Akbar Khan had every chance to make a career at court.

His companion Yahya Dowlatabadi, a leading left-winged constitutional politician and reformist of the Iranian school system sent Mirza Ali Akbar Khan in 1907 to Russian Azerbaijan to teach at the Persian Sa'adat-School at Baku.

He bought the Gowharshad residence in Tehran and a huge garden area of Bagh-e Mostowfi, in the city's cosy north at the slopes of Alburz Mountains.
