Murad Baksh (died 1661) was the youngest son of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan and empress Mumtaz Mahal. He proclaimed himself emperor after reports that his father had died and later joined hands with Aurangzeb to defeat Dara Shikhoh, the eldest son of Shah Jahan. Later while he was in a tent with his brother Aurangzeb, he was intoxicated and was secretly sent to the prison in Gwalior Fort where he faced a trial that sentenced him to death for having murdered someone in the past. He was found guilty and executed in 1657.[1] With the last of his brothers now dead, Aurangzeb soon became the undisputed emperor of the Mughal Empire.
