Patna: A Patna court on Tuesday granted interim relief to popular educator Faisal Khan, widely known as Khan Sir, by staying his arrest in connection with the recent coaching centre firing case.
The District Judge’s court pronounced its order on Tuesday after reserving its verdict on Khan Sir’s anticipatory bail plea following a hearing on Monday. While the court has not yet granted anticipatory bail, it has directed the police not to take any coercive or punitive action against him until further proceedings. The court has also sought the case diary and details of Khan Sir’s criminal history from the investigating agency.
The matter will now be heard again on June 30. Seeking the case diary and the accused’s criminal record is a routine judicial procedure while considering an anticipatory bail application.
Although the bail plea remains pending, the stay on arrest has provided major relief to Khan Sir, who had been facing the possibility of immediate police action. After the court order, Khan Sir’s counsel, Advocate Arvind Kumar Mahuar, said that Khan Sir is now free to move around wherever he wants as the court has given him protection from the arrest.
The case stems from an incident that occurred on the night of June 2, when unidentified individuals allegedly attacked Khan Global Studies, the coaching institute run by Khan Sir in Patna. Following the incident, police arrested Roshan Anand, the owner of Gyan Bindu Coaching Institute, and sent him to judicial custody.
The controversy intensified after a video surfaced showing two security guards allegedly firing shots into the air outside the coaching institute during the attack. The police subsequently arrested both guards and lodged a case against them. Later, Khan Sir was also named in the case.
Police registered an FIR against Khan Sir under provisions related to attempted murder and the Arms Act. Since the registration of the case, he had reportedly remained out of the police’s reach. Law enforcement officials had visited his coaching institute in an attempt to apprehend him, but he was not found there.
