Best Answer

yes he did kill .

With Shuja and Murad disposed of, and with his father Shah Jahan immured in Agra, Aurangzeb pursued Dara Shikoh, chasing him across the north-western bounds of the empire. After a series of battles, defeats and retreats, Dara Sheik was betrayed by one of his generals, who arrested and bound him. In 1659, Aurangzeb arranged his formal coronation in Delhi. He had Dara Shikoh openly marched in chains back to Delhi where he had him executed on arrival on the 30th of August, 1659. Having secured his position, Aurangzeb kept his frail father Shah Jahan at the Agra Fortwhere Shah Jahan died in 1666 and was denied a state funeral. s brothers

Guru Tegh Bahadur was the ninth Sikh Guru. The Kashmiri Brahmans, led by Pundit Kirpa Ram, came to Guru Tegh Bahadur at Anandpur in 1675 for protection against the atrocities of Aurangzeb. The Guru was summoned to Delhi. Aurangzeb asked him to embrace Islam to which he refused. Aurangzeb imprisoned him and tortured him for many days. After some days he was brought to Chandni Chowk and was beheaded on the orders of Aurangzeb. Gurudwara Sis Ganj in Delhi stands at the place of the Guru's martyrdom and Gurdwara Rakab Ganj at the site of his cremation.
