Sadiq Khan Zand (c. - 1782) was the fifth Shah of Zand dynasty, who ruled Persia from August 22, 1779 until March 14, 1781. Sadiq Khan was Karim Khan''s brother, but unlike him, Sadiq was well-known for his corruption. The course of his reigning was the pinnacle of his political mischief. When On June 19, 1779 Abol Fath Khan became the sole ruler of Persia, Zaki Khan became his aid, through which Abol Fath managed to survive. After Zaki Khan''s murder by the people of Isfahan however, he became powerless, and many who were waiting for the opportune moment began their rebellion.
