Şehzade Mehmed Abdülkerim (27 June 1906 – 3 August 1935) was an Ottoman prince, grandson of the 34th Ottoman sultan, Abdul Hamid II by his third son Şehzade Mehmed Selim. In 1933, Abdul Kerim was invited to Japan by their government, presumably with an eye towards leveraging his status as the Ottoman pretender to aid the Japanese Empire in outreach to Central Asian Muslims in conflict with the Soviet Union.[2][3][4]
He was educated at the Galatasaray College, Constantinople.
