After a shocking knife attack on Saif Ali Khan at his Bandra home in the early hours of January 16, the actor’s security has been beefed up. On Tuesday, Kareena Kapoor’s team had a meeting with the Mumbai paparazzi. They requested the shutterbugs not to click Taimur and Jeh’s pictures, according to a Times Of India report.
The couple also requested photographers not to assemble outside their home, citing heightened security concerns. As per reports, a police constable has been deployed with the 54-year-old actor through the day, for his security. Mr Khan has roped in actor Ronit Roy’s firm to step up his security.
Saif Ali Khan was attacked by an intruder in the early hours of Thursday morning (January 16). He was stabbed six times by a knife. The actor had a neuro surgery and a plastic surgery to repair his grave wounds.
Later, the hospital, in a media briefing on Thursday afternoon, said that Saif Ali Khan was stabbed in the spine with a knife, and that they have repaired the leaking spinal fluid. Khan has two deep wounds on his hands and neck, which were repaired by plastic surgery.
After six days, Saif Ali Khan returned home from the hospital (January 21). While stepping inside his house, he waved at fans stationed outside there.
Police have arrested Shariful Islam Shehzad, a Bangladeshi national who illegally entered India and had been living under the false name Bijoy Das, for allegedly breaking into the actor’s home and attacking him.
In another development, the Mumbai Police has recorded the statement of a West Bengal-based woman, whose Aadhar Card was used by the accused, Sariful Islam, to buy a sim card.
