Years: 1297 - 1297
Ghazan arrests the Nawrūz partisans for treason in May 1297, then later in the year marches against Nawrūz himself, who is at this time the commander of the army of Khorasan.
Ghazan's forces are victorious at a battle near Nishapur.
Nawrūz takes refuge at the court of the Malik (king) of Herat in northern Afghanistan, but the Malik betrays him and delivers Nawruz to Ghazan, who has Nawruz executed immediately on August 13.
