The Attack on Saif Ali Khan

The 54-year-old actor was repeatedly stabbed by an intruder on Thursday morning. The attack took place at his Bandra residence, which he shares with his wife, Kareena Kapoor, and their two children.

Saif arrived at Lilavati Hospital at 3 a.m. on Thursday and had been receiving treatment there since. He underwent a five-hour surgery that day and was later moved to the ICU. A piece of the knife was successfully removed from his body.

Saif sustained six stab wounds in total, two of which were deep cuts. Doctors at Lilavati Hospital revealed that he was leaking spinal fluid when he arrived, but fortunately, he avoided any major injuries. His recovery is progressing well, according to the medical team.

Police Arrest the Accused

On Sunday, police arrested the 30-year-old suspect, identified as Shariful Islam Shehzad Mohammad Rohilla Amin Fakir, who had changed his name to Vijay Das. Fakir was remanded in police custody for five days.

Authorities are expected to recreate the crime scene at Khan's residence with the accused, according to a police official. The police believe Fakir entered the building with the intent to commit burglary.

The accused has stated that he was unaware of Saif Ali Khan's identity and targeted the house because he believed it belonged to a wealthy individual.
