A similar relief was also extended to three of his staff members, with the court observing that no punitive action be initiated against them until the next hearing.

The Patna Police reportedly submitted the case diary before the court during Saturday’s proceedings. After reviewing the documents, the court said that the matter will be heard next on June 25.

Khan Sir’s counsel said he has been granted protection from arrest until the next hearing, while the case will now be considered further after examining the case diary as well as other materials placed on record.

However, two security guards of Khan Sir’s coaching center continue to remain in judicial custody.

The controversy further intensified amid the ongoing dispute between Khan Sir and Roshan Anand. After getting out of jail, Anand alleged that attempts had been made to eliminate him, besides accusing Khan Sir of involvement in a conspiracy against him.
