The sultan Tughrul Beg, enraged by the disgrace and defeat of the army he sent with Kutulmush, had decided to have him arrested and murdered. However he had not made up his mind before Kutulmush fled, captured Pasar, and became his enemy. He was joined there by Ibrahim Yinal, Tughrul Beg's own estranged half-brother. Tughrul Beg attacked Pasar, but the siege lasted a long time. The defenders threw open the city gates on several occasions and attacked the sultan's men, causing them much harm. Finally Pasar fell, Ibrahim Yinal was captured and executed, while Kutulmush fled with Melech, son of Ibrahim Inal, and 6,000 men
