Sayyid Khalid bin Barghash Al-Busa'id (Arabic: خالد بن برغش البوسعيد; 1874–19 March 1927) was the sixth Sultan of Zanzibar.
However, Rennell Rodd immediately ordered the landings of 200 marines armed with machine guns, while the police force under Lieutenant Hatch was stationed around the palace and town.
After entry was forced into the palace, Khalid was rebuked and marched off to his house under arrest, and the Sayyid Hamad bin Thuwaini Al-Busa'id (Arabic: حمد بن ثويني البوسعيد) was installed as the new Sultan, after he had accepted the conditions "which had been carefully thought out and prepared in advance" by Rennell Rodd.
[3] This time, the casualties sustained were 500 or so men in Khalid's retinue, martial law was imposed, and several Omani sheikhs suspected of complicity were apprehended and deported to Machakos.
Basil Cave, the British Consul, who had been Vice-Consul when Rennell Rodd had removed Khalid from succession three years earlier, informed the Foreign Secretary, Marquess of Salisbury, in September, that he "remains in the house all the doors of which are guarded, from the inside, by about ten armed sailors or marines from a German man-of-war in harbour.

After many entreaties asking for his return to East Africa, Winston Churchill, as Secretary of State to the Colonies, wrote to the Administrator of Seychelles (22 March 1922): "It has been arranged that Seyyid Khaled bin Bargash and his dependents should in future be allowed to reside at Mombasa.
