The commander of the Caucasian Islamic Army Nuri Pasha, while in Ganja, became a guest of the head of the intelligence service of the Republic of Azerbaijan Naghi Sheikhzamanly. After that, Nuri Pasha used the house as his headquarters.

The commander of the Caucasian Islamic Army, Turkish General Nuri Pasha, in the course of the battles for Baku in September 1918, drove British troops, as well as armed forces of the Central Caspian Dictatorship and Bolshevik forces, out of Baku. Due to this, the People"s Republic of Azerbaijan was proclaimed. -02D-
