The Prime Minister didn’t provide the expected protection for Baha’u’llah

Mírzá Áqá Khán, [the prime minister] though he undertook to give the fullest assurances that were required, and received Bahá’u’lláh with every mark of respect into his home, was, however, too apprehensive for the safety of his own position to accord his Guest the treatment he was expected to extend.
