Bengal Infantry

What was the fate of Jagat Sheth, Yaar Latif, Umi Chand, Zafar Ali Khan - after Battle of Plashey in 1757?
In the Battle of Plashey on 23rd June,1757, on the bank of Vagirathi river near Murshidabad, between force led by Nawab Siraj-ud-Dowla and british force led by Lord Cllive. 50000 man force aginst 5000 man force. Victory by Nawab was a question of time only. But army commander Mir Muhammad Zafar Ali Khanm, having a secretly agreed pact with Lord Clive, didnot follow Nawab's order to strike. Instead, he stood and watched and made around 45000 infantry and cavalry person to stand inert. So Nawab conceded inevitable defeat and fled from war-ground. So Bengal, Orissa, Bihar came and eventually whole Indian Subcontinent came under British rule for next 200 years. We know the collaborators that acted against the interest of their own country were Mahtab Chand (Banker), Yaar Latif (Army Commander), Umi Chand(treasury), Mir Zafar(Army commander).
What were their rewards? How happily they passed their rest of lives?
Mir Zafar Ali Khanm-
Became Nawab, deposed in 1760, reinstated in 1764 till his death in 1765
Jagat Sheth-
Went mad, after Clive denied him 5% commision
