Faisal Khan, known as Khan Sir, will not surrender to the Patna Civil Court and will instead seek anticipatory bail on Monday [1].
The legal move follows a firing incident outside the Khan Global Studies coaching center in Patna, Bihar, which has led to the educator being named in a first information report (FIR) [2].
Arvind Kumar Mavvar, the lawyer representing Khan, announced the decision on Saturday, June 6 [3]. He said that the legal team will file the anticipatory bail plea on June 8 [4].
"Khan Sir will not surrender," Mavvar said [5].
The defense argues that the charges are baseless. The lawyer said the FIR is a conspiracy and stated there were no injuries resulting from the incident [6].
"We will file an anticipatory bail plea on Monday," Mavvar said [7].
The legal dispute stems from a firing incident that occurred on June 2 [8]. The defense continues to maintain that the allegations are part of a coordinated effort to target the educator, a claim supported by the decision to avoid immediate surrender to the court [6].
"The FIR is a conspiracy and there were no injuries," Mavvar said [9].
“"Khan Sir will not surrender," said lawyer Arvind Kumar Mavvar.”
The decision to seek anticipatory bail rather than surrendering indicates a strategic legal move to prevent the educator's immediate detention. By challenging the FIR as a conspiracy and citing a lack of physical injuries, the defense is attempting to undermine the severity of the charges before the court can order an arrest.
