Saif Ali Khan Attack Case: No One Arrested So Far, Says Mumbai Police

New Delhi: Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan’s attacker has not been arrested so far, said the Mumbai police. Saif Ali Khan was attacked at 2 AM on Thursday while attempting to protect his family from an intruder at their Bandra residence. 

The confrontation escalated into a violent scuffle during which the intruder stabbed Saif six times before fleeing the scene via a fire escape staircase. Later, the attacker was captured on camera at Bandra railway station.

The city police had formed 20 teams to track down and nab the intruder and tapped their network of informers to locate him. 

The crime branch and the local police also gathered technical data, including how many mobile phones were active in the area when the actor was attacked during a “burglary attempt” in his apartment housed in ‘Satguru Sharan’ building, the police official said.

Evidence was collected from Khan’s home and the building with the help of forensic teams and the dog squad. Searches were conducted at many places in Mumbai to track down the attacker. 

The intruder did not force his entry or break into the actor's flat but possibly sneaked in at some point during the night with the intention of robbery, police officials said.

The man, she said, pointed a finger at her and warned her, "Koi awaaz nahin (don't make any noise).
