Patna Court stays arrest of Khan Sir in coaching institute firing case
A Patna court on Tuesday ordered a stay on the arrest of popular educator Faisal Khan, widely known as Khan Sir, until further directions in connection with a case linked to a recent firing incident involving his security personnel.
According to his lawyer, Arvind Kumar Mouar, Khan Sir had been named in an FIR related to an incident in which gunshots were allegedly fired by guards during an attack on his coaching institute earlier this month.
“The court has stayed his arrest till further orders and has directed the police to produce the case diary and other relevant records on the next hearing,” Mouar told reporters in Patna.
Khan Sir had moved an anticipatory bail plea before the court on Monday. His legal team argued that all relevant facts had been presented before the judiciary in accordance with the law.
The court is expected to take up the matter again after reviewing the case diary. The next date of hearing has not yet been fixed.
The court also sought details regarding two guards who were detained by police in connection with the firing incident. Their hearing is scheduled for the following day, once the case diary is submitted.
The case stems from an incident on June 2 night, when around 15–20 unidentified individuals allegedly vandalised the Khan Global Studies Institute in Patna and pelted stones at the premises. In response, gunshots were reportedly fired by security guards at the site.
Police had earlier detained two guards associated with the institute as part of the investigation.
The matter is currently under judicial consideration, and Khan Sir has been granted protection from coercive action while cooperating with the ongoing investigation.

So happy that Khan Sir has been granted stay on his arrest in a case which quite clearly seems to have been foisted on him most likely by the coaching mafia who find his most noble efforts as an obstruction in continuing with the loot they have been carrying out all in the name of coaching. Big coaching institutes had been extracting in exorbitant money for preparing students from well off sections to appear in competitive exams . Khan sir had put in his own resources to enable the children of very poor and average families to get ready for exams at extremely reasonable fees waiving even this in case of very very poor student aspirants. Clearly there are many unseen powerful hands behind the attack on his institute to derail the tremendous service he had been doing . The court has rightly seen through and therefore given him relief !
