All subsequent Crimean khans were descended from Selyamet, except for five who were sons or grandsons of his brothers.
Selaymet, who had been involved in Mehmed's death, quarreled with Safa and fled to Kaffa where he was protected by the Turks.
In 1601 he was accused of being involved in Devlet bin Murad’s rebellion and fled to Akkerman.
The Turks rejected this, released Selyamet from jail and made him khan (April 1608).
Our sources do not explain why the Turks chose a person with such an irregular history.
By the time Selyamet arrived in Bakhchisarai, Mehmed had killed Tokhtamysh.
Mehmed's brother Shahin Giray arrived from Circassia and was made nureddin.
Dur-Bike, the widow of Mubarak, who died in Circassia, arrived with her sons Jannibek and Devlet.
In 1609 Mehmed and Shahin conspired against Selyamet and were forced to flee from Crimea to Budjak.
