===Collaboration with other opponents of Shoghi Effendi=== After his excommunication, Sohrab joined forces with other people who opposed [[Shoghi Effendi]]. Part of this combination was a court case raised by Qamar Baha'i Jalal the grandson of [[Mirza Musa]] and others in about 1950-1, challenging Shoghi Effendi's right to carry out major construction work around the [[Shrine of Baha'u'llah]]. One of their key witnesses, Nayyir Afnan, died shortly before the case was due to open, and it all came to nothing. One of the culminations of this was a meeting that was held in [[Famagusta]] in the late 1950s. Representatives of all three main generations of [[Covenant-breaker]]s were present including: Jalal Azal representing the followers of [[Subh-i-Azal|Mirza Yahya]], Ismat and others represented the followers of [[Mirza Muhammad Ali]], and Ahmad Sohrab represented those opposed to any form of administration. One of the aims of this conference was to build a mausoleum over the grave of Mirza Yahya. To this end, an amount of money was collected but it "disappeared" and nothing came of the project.([http://bahai-library.com/articles/exiles.html Bahai Library "Exiles"])
