After the attack Khan Sir had told media that he rushed to the centre at 11:30 pm after he was informed of the attack and vandalism.
Khan Sir said that thousands of students from his coaching centre were recently selected in the Bihar Police recruitment exam. A felicitation programme was organised for the successful students. He claimed that after the event, some people reached the coaching centre and threatened that it would be “blown up” within two days.
Rival Coaching Centres Under Lens
Khan Sir also expressed suspicion that some coaching operators could be behind the incident. He alleged that some people oppose his coaching centre because it provides affordable education. However, there has been no official confirmation regarding this so far.
Speaking to the media, Khan Sir also demanded security for himself and his institute. A large number of students on Wednesday morning gathered at the coaching centre to show support for Khan Sir.
After the incident, the coaching management handed over CCTV footage to the police. Meanwhile, the injured guard has also claimed to have identified some of the accused. Patna SSP Kartikeya Sharma said that the initial probe suggests some students were involved in the assault and tearing down of posters.
