Patna: The Patna Civil Court on Saturday extended protection from arrest for educator Faisal Khan, popularly known as Khan Sir, in connection with a firing case registered against him.
The court directed that no coercive action be taken against Khan Sir until further orders. The matter was heard on his interim bail plea, after which the court deferred the proceedings and fixed June 30 as the next date of hearing.
The interim relief means that the stay on Khan Sir’s arrest will continue until the court passes its next order in the case.
During the hearing, the prosecution submitted an updated case diary before the court and sought time to examine its contents.
Counsel appearing for Khan Sir argued that the matter had already seen repeated extensions and requested the court to hear arguments on the interim bail plea on the same day.
However, the prosecution opposed the request, following which the court listed the matter for further hearing on June 30.
Khan Sir’s two bodyguards, who were arrested in connection with the case, continue to remain in judicial custody.
Their regular bail applications are also scheduled to be heard by the Patna Civil Court on June 30.
The case was registered by Patna Police against Khan Sir under charges including attempt to murder and provisions of the Arms Act.
Further proceedings in the case will now take place on June 30, when the court is expected to hear the interim bail plea and the bail applications of the two bodyguards.
