Overview

  • A single-judge bench led by Justice Sameer Jain granted bail in the 2019 encroachment case involving Rampur’s Quality Bar.
  • Khan was added as an accused in 2024, and police filed a chargesheet in January 2025 after the MP-MLA court rejected bail in May.
  • The FIR followed a complaint by owner Gagan Arora alleging forcible grabbing of the property in Rampur.
  • His defence argued the allotment to his wife Tazeen Fatima and son Abdullah was as per rules and that prosecutors lacked proof.
  • His lawyer said release could take two to three days once the order is uploaded, with other proceedings in separate cases still pending.
