Patna’s Coaching Turf War Intensifies: Khan Sir Booked Under Arms Act and Attempt to Murder After Viral Video
The popular educator faces non-bailable charges after state investigators obtained footage of his personal security detail opening fire during an early-morning clash with a rival institute.
The intense business rivalry between Patna’s elite civil service coaching giants has escalated into a major criminal investigation. The Patna Police have filed a non-bailable First Information Report (FIR) against prominent educator and YouTuber Faizal Khan, popularly known as “Khan Sir,” the managing director of Khan Global Studies. The legal action includes charges under the Arms Act and Section 109 (Attempt to Murder) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
The case took a dramatic turn after digital verification teams obtained viral social media footage from an early-morning clash on June 3 outside Khan’s institute in Musallahpur Haat. While the tech-celebrity initially claimed his facility was the sole victim of an unprovoked assault by a rival academy, the newly surfaced footage shows his own security guards firing multiple rounds into the air right in front of him.

The Dynamic Reversal: From Victim to Prime Accused
The violent dispute originated on May 27, immediately following the announcement of the Bihar Police Constable recruitment examination results. Both Khan Global Studies and the rival Gyan Bindu GS Academy claimed the state’s highest selection rates, engaging in an aggressive marketing war across the city.
The advertising rivalry turned physical when staff members allegedly began destroying or covering up competing promotional materials.
Following the initial midnight property damage, Kadamkuan police initially arrested Roshan Anand, the director of Gyan Bindu Academy, placing him in judicial custody at Beur jail. However, the arrest triggered mass protests, drawing over 5,000 civil service students into the streets. The balance shifted completely when counter-investigations uncovered footage of Khan Sir’s security guards discharging their weapons during the incident.
Severe Technical Violations Uncovered by Forensics
City Superintendent of Police (Central) Diksha confirmed that both security guards visible in the footage have been arrested and their firearms seized for ballistic testing at the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL).
| Investigation Variable | Initial Executive Claims | Verified Police Log Status |
| Firing Origin | Rival gang fired 8-10 rounds at the office. | Khan Sir’s private guards executed the gunfire. |
| Roshan Anand’s Role | Direct orchestration of an execution plot. | Missing from active riot footage; case called a frame-up. |
| Legal Standing | Filed under basic mischief & property damage. | Upgraded to non-bailable Attempt to Murder & Arms Act profiles. |
During intense police questioning, the detained guards reportedly admitted to discharging their firearms under direct orders from Khan Sir. This admission automatically made the educator a named co-conspirator in the state’s official complaint.

Khan Sir Defends Actions as “Self-Defense”
Facing the threat of immediate arrest, Khan Sir released a public clarification statement defending the actions of his security detail. He argued that the firing was a necessary self-defense measure to protect his staff from an aggressive mob before law enforcement arrived.
“A violent mob had beaten my head guard to near-unconsciousness and was actively tearing down our infrastructure,” Khan Sir stated to local reporters. “The police cannot simply fly to a crime scene instantly. The guards fired into the air as a last resort in self-defense to scatter the rioters. They did not target or shoot at any individual.”
Despite his self-defense claims, local legal experts emphasize that firing weapons during a public riot without an immediate threat to life carries heavy statutory penalties. With the Patna Police actively conducting raids, Khan Sir’s legal team is moving quickly to secure anticipatory bail from the Bihar High Court to prevent his imminent arrest.
