Dubai Woman Arrested For Trespassing At Aditya Roy Kapur’s Bandra House

A 47-year-old woman has been arrested for trespassing at the Bandra residence of 39-year-old actor Aditya Roy Kapur after entering the property under false pretences on Monday evening.

The woman, identified by police as Gazala Zakaria Siddiqui, is a resident of Dubai.

The incident occurred just days after two individuals were detained for trespassing at fellow actor Salman Khan's Bandra building.

According to police reports, Siddiqui arrived at Kapur's apartment around 6pm on Monday and requested to meet the actor. She informed the actor's domestic help, Sunita Pawar, that she had brought some clothes and gifts for him. Believing her story, Pawar allowed her into the home.

When Aditya Roy Kapur returned, he was surprised to find an unfamiliar woman inside and informed Pawar that he did not know her. Police said that as the woman attempted to move closer to Kapur, Pawar advised him to step out of the house.

Once outside, Pawar updated the house manager, Jayshree Dunkdu, who then sent the actor's production manager, Shruti Rao, to the flat.

A formal complaint was subsequently lodged with Khar Police.

The woman reportedly told officers that she lives in Dubai and had come to Roy Kapur's home because she is a fan and "wanted to stay with him".

"We have arrested the woman after registering an offence against her under section 331(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for trespassing and are investigating further," stated an officer from Khar police station.

Born on 16 November 1985, Aditya Roy Kapur is best known for his lead role in the Hindi film Aashiqui 2. He hails from a well-known family in the Indian entertainment industry. His elder brother Siddharth Roy Kapur is a film producer, while his other brother, Kunal Roy Kapur, is also an actor. Actress Vidya Balan is his sister-in-law through marriage with Siddharth.

This incident involving Roy Kapur comes just months after actor Saif Ali Khan was attacked by an intruder who repeatedly stabbed him inside his twelfth-floor flat in upscale Bandra, Mumbai.

That attack occurred on 16 January this year. The 54-year-old underwent emergency surgery and was discharged from hospital after five days.

In April, police submitted a chargesheet in a Mumbai court regarding the Saif Ali Khan stabbing. Officials confirmed the Bandra police compiled the chargesheet, which contains evidence against the accused-Bangladeshi national Mohammad Shariful Islam-though they declined to provide further details.
