Perspective
Malkoč-beg was the son of Kara Osman-beg, captain of the Ottoman cavalry military units[3] and sanjakbey of the Sanjak of Herzegovina whose türbe is in Kopčić near Bugojno.[4]
Some authors adopted view of Safvet-beg Bašagić that Malkoč-beg Karaosman, originally from a village near Prozor, which is disputed by some other authors.[5] According to some incomplete documents some of the descendants of Malkoč-beg received ziamet in Duge, hence the last name, or Dulali which was how their descendants were referred to.[6]
Malkoč-beg had seven sons (Džafer, Osman, Omer, Ibrahim, Alija, Husein and Hasan) and one daughter (Hani).[7]
In the 1563 defter of the Sanjak of Pakrac it is mentioned that the captain of the region around river Sava was Husein, son of Malkoč-beg.[8] According to Evliya Çelebi, Ibrahim built a mosque in Donji Vakuf.[9] Together with his sons Džafer and Husein, Malkoč-beg fought against Christian armies on the territory between rivers Una and Kupa.[10] Because of his successful conquests he was promoted to the position of sanjakbey.[10] In 1562 he personally wrote a document in Dubrovnik, as sanjakbey of the Sanjak of Herzegovina.[11]

According to Šabanović, Malkoč-beg died on 26 October 1565 in Banja Luka, where he was buried beside his son Džafer-beg who died five years earlier.[9][11] According to Mazalić, Malkoč-beg died in 1562 in Pécs and was buried in the grave of his father Kara Osman-beg.[9]
