Yes, the descendants of Rohilla Pathans are in the South American countries of Suriname and Guyana. The ancestors of these present day residents of Suriname and Guyana were Urdu speaking Afghan Muslims. They settled in the north Indian area of Uttar Pradesh and subsequently in modern day Pakistan.
During the 19th century, the Rohilla or Afghan Muslims were involved in an uprising against British rule in India, in 1857. Many of their numbers were executed or jailed. Others were shipped with other Muslim indentured laborers to Guyana and Suriname. Ships began sailing the supply of Muslim indentured laborers from the subcontinent to northern South America in 1838. The last ships sailed in 1916.
