A Patna court grants anticipatory bail to Faisal Khan, popularly known as “Khan Sir,” and three staff members in connection with a firing incident outside his coaching institute. The case stems from the night of 2 June, when unidentified people allegedly vandalised the Khan Global Studies Institute and pelted stones at the premises. According to police and reports, two private security guards were later arrested and kept in judicial custody, with investigations relying on video evidence showing them firing into the air after the vandalism. The court order also gives regular bail to the two guards. Khan Sir’s defence argues that any firing was defensive, involving warning shots aimed at dealing with a violent mob rather than causing harm, and that the investigation does not find evidence Khan Sir issued an order to fire. Reports also note that police registered an FIR after the alleged vandalism and that Khan Sir disputes involvement, claiming a rival orchestrated the incident. While some accounts mention allegations by the guards about an order to open fire, the court’s grant of anticipatory bail indicates it accepts the defence’s submissions at this stage.

Speaking to ANI after the order was drafted, Khan Sir's defence counsel, Arvind Kumar Mawwar, stated that the court took note of the fact that the firing was a defensive measure against a violent mob and was not done to cause harm."After drafting the order, the learned Principal District and Sessions Judge granted them bail; there were no injuries sustained by anyone. Shots were fired in self-defence; specifically, warning shots were fired into the air by the guards. Regarding the allegation that an order to fire was given, the investigation revealed no evidence that Khan Sir had issued any such order. The right to fire warning shots in self-defence is established at the time the license is issued. If one faces a threat, perceives a danger to a person, or sees property being destroyed, Section 35 of the BNS grants the authority to disperse a mob by firing into the air. The anticipatory bail was granted to Khan Sir and his 3 staff members, while regular bail was granted to the guards," he said.No Right To Pollute Rivers In The Name Of Religion: Madras High Court On Thamirabarani RitualsEarlier, the court had upheld a 'no coercive action' order, directing the police not to take any harsh action against him until the next hearing in connection with the coaching institute firing case.Meanwhile, the Patna Police had registered an FIR against Faisal Khan and two others in connection with the June 2 firing and vandalism incident outside his coaching institute.
