Treaty of Chushul ends the Sino-Sikh War

Clause 4 of the treaty freed remaining Sikh and Dogra prisoners of war held in Tibetan captivity since 1841.

The treaty included a clause that freed the remaining Sikh and Dogra prisoners of war still held in Tibetan captivity. These prisoners had been captured during the conflict in 1841. This provision was part of the agreement executed by an exchange of notes. The sources state the clause was part of the treaty but do not specify the date on which the release itself occurred.
