About Mansur Khan
Gorjasbi Beg, better known as Mansur Khan, was a Safavid military commander, royal gholam, and official from the Georgian Orbeliani clan. He served as the commander of the empire's élite gholam corps (qollar-aghasi) sometime before 1693, and as the governor (beglarbeg) of Qandahar in 1663.
He was a son of the Georgian nobleman Aslamaz, and had at least two brothers, Otar (Zu al-Faqār) and Vakhushti, who held prominent positions like him. According to Alexander Orbeliani (1802–1869), he had one more brother named Kaykhosrow.
