A Patna court on Thursday, 11 June reserved its order on the bail pleas of two security guards linked to popular educator and YouTuber Faisal Khan, widely known as Khan Sir, in connection with the 2 June firing incident at a coaching institute in Kadamkuan, Patna. The Magistrate is expected to pronounce the order on Friday, according to Khan Sir's counsel.
What the Court Heard
Advocate Arvind Kumar Mahuar, representing Khan Sir, confirmed that the hearing on the security guards' bail application concluded on Thursday. 'Hearing has taken place on the bail application of the security guards after which the Magistrate has reserved its order and will be pronounced tomorrow,' he said.
Separately, the District Judge's court had earlier this week pronounced its order on Khan Sir's own anticipatory bail plea, which had been reserved after a hearing on Monday. While the court stopped short of granting anticipatory bail, it directed police not to take any coercive or punitive action against Khan Sir until further proceedings. The matter is next listed for hearing on 30 June.
Interim Relief for Khan Sir
The stay on arrest has provided significant relief to Khan Sir, who had been facing the prospect of immediate police action. As part of standard judicial procedure in anticipatory bail matters, the court has also sought the case diary and details of Khan Sir's criminal history from the investigating agency.
Notably, the bail plea itself remains pending — the protection from arrest does not amount to a grant of anticipatory bail, and the court's scrutiny of the case record signals that the proceedings are still at an early stage.
The Kadamkuan Firing Incident
An FIR was registered against Khan Sir, his two arrested security guards, and other unidentified persons following a disturbance at a coaching institute in Kadamkuan on 2 June. According to police sources, the two arrested bodyguards allegedly told investigators during questioning that they fired their .315-bore rifles on the instructions of Faisal Khan. These are alleged statements and have not been independently verified.
Police subsequently arrested Roshan Anand, the owner of Gyan Bindu Coaching Institute, and remanded him to judicial custody. A Patna court earlier denied Anand's bail plea.
What Happens Next
The Magistrate's order on the security guards' bail plea is expected on Friday, 12 June. Khan Sir's anticipatory bail matter will be taken up again on 30 June, when the court will review the case diary and criminal record submitted by the investigating agency. The outcome of both proceedings could significantly shape the legal trajectory of the case against one of India's most-followed coaching personalities.
Point of View
Which, if upheld, could directly implicate him in the firing. The fact that the court has separately sought his criminal history suggests the bench is not treating this as a routine case. For a figure with tens of millions of followers, the reputational stakes of a prolonged criminal proceeding are as significant as the legal ones.
