Two critical incidents following the First World War clearly demonstrated the political ineptitude of Qajar authorities. The governor of Rezaich (now Urumiah) had obtained an audience with Simko in February 1919 and appealed to him to stop raiding his city. Simko viewed this appeal as a sign of government weakness, which further emboldened his dream of an independent Kurdish state.
After the assassination attempt, Simko attacked Shapur with 4,000 men in revenge. Shapur's citizens gathered 7,700 men to resist Simko, but were only able to provide firearms to 340 of them. On December 19, 1919, Shapur's defenses held out fiercely for two days before Simko overcame their defenses. Showing little mercy, Simko had many of the fleeing citizens pursued and killed as they attempted to escape to Tabriz and Sharafkhaneh.
