Mirza Muhammad Nikusiyar or Nekusiyar or Neku Siyar, also known as Timur II was a claimant to the Mughal throne.[2]
Neku Siyar was born in 1679, the son of Mughal prince
In 1695, at the age of 16, he was appointed the subahdar of Assam by Aurangzeb and served until 1701. In 1702, he was then appointed the subahdar of Sindh, serving until 1707.[7]
Pretender to the throne
On May 1719, Birbal, the local governor of the Agra Fort, used Neku Siyar as a puppet and proclaimed him as the emperor. Neku Siyar was brought out of old harem prison on 18 May 1719 and proclaimed the Mughal emperor, challenging the legitimacy of the reign of his nephew Rafi ud-Darajat.
The Sayyid brothers acted quickly to secure the position of their puppet emperor, retaking the Agra Fort by June and deposing Birbal and Neku Siyar from their posts. Neku Siyar was arrested on 13 August 1719 and again placed in his old harem prison at Agra.[8] He was then imprisoned in the Salimgarh Fort in Delhi.
Neku Siyar died on 12 April 1723 in Persia,[9] at the age of 43.[10]
