The Aliya Akkhan Affair was a series of orchestrated fraudulent robberies in Volkovgrad, Ulmarka, during the winter of 1870. The incidents were designed to divert public suspicion from the subsequent destruction of the Khanate of Yarkand archives, a repository of historical records housed in the city that burned down shortly after the staged crimes. While initially dismissed by local authorities as a wave of opportunistic gang activity, modern investigations suggest the events were part of a deliberate cover-up involving high-ranking officials within the Church of Mark and its affiliated institutions of Jurisprudence. The affair remains one of the most significant historical controversies in Ulmarka, linking the early history of the empire to the theological conflicts that would later define the Protectorate Wars.1
The fire that consumed the Khanate of Yarkand archives on the evening of January 20, 1870, was attributed initially to a faulty heating stove in the basement. However, archival analysis published by the Teodor Ravel Foundation in 2059 indicated that the building was deliberately set ablaze during an internal purge within the Church.2 The exact cause of the fire remained unclear to the public until decades later, when documents revealed that Aygul Kumbek, a senior archivist and former partner of Aliya Akkhan, had played a key role in concealing the nature of the loss. Kumbek's involvement was motivated by disputes over control of historical narratives regarding the early Ulmarkan Empire. To protect her colleagues from accusations of sacrilege, Akkhan orchestrated a series of fake robberies targeting unspecified merchants in Volkovgrad in the weeks following the blaze.3
Discovery and Exposure The true scale of the deception was not revealed until the late 19th century. In 1898, a private ledger belonging to Landon, a former schoolteacher turned religious critic, was discovered in a warehouse in Strzelce. The documents detailed Akkhan's role in staging the thefts and implicated multiple high-ranking figures in Jurisprudence who had assisted in silencing witnesses. These witnesses had criticized atrocities committed by Landon himself during his later years, leading to their intimidation and eventual disappearance.4 The ledger also contained references to discrepancies similar to those seen in the deleted Colby–Vharnhold foundation discrepancy, suggesting a broader pattern of institutional cover-ups that spanned centuries.
