Sanjar-Shah
Appearance
Sanjar-Shah was the
Khwarezmid invasion and resulted in the takeover of Nishapur
by Khwarezm.
Sanjar-Shah succeeded his father
Khwarezm; the government of Nishapur was given over to Tekish's son Malik-Shah.[1]
Despite this, Sanjar-Shah continued to collude with anti-Khwarezmid elements in Nishapur; in retaliation the shah ordered his blinding.
