Saif Ali Khan’s attacker, a Bangladeshi national living under a false identity, was taken to recreate the crime scene in Bandra. The accused had entered through a duct shaft during a burglary attempt. Police are investigating the case, collecting evidence, and addressing security concerns.

Mumbai Police investigating the stabbing of actor Saif Ali Khan took the accused, Shariful Islam Shehzad Mohammad Rohilla Amin Fakir, to his Bandra apartment and the nearby railway station on Tuesday to recreate the crime scene. The accused, a 30-year-old Bangladeshi national living in India under the alias Vijay Das, was arrested following the attack.
The incident occurred last Thursday at Saif’s residence in the Satguru Sharan building. The actor suffered multiple stab wounds and underwent a five-hour surgery. Doctors have confirmed that he is recovering well.
Investigators revealed that Fakir had entered the building through the duct shaft and gained access to the apartment by climbing a ladder. The attacker allegedly hid in Saif’s garden for two hours after the attack, fearing capture. Initial findings indicate Fakir intended to commit a burglary but it remains unclear if he was aware of Saif’s presence in the apartment.
The accused, who has lived in Mumbai for five months, sustained himself by working odd jobs and through a housekeeping agency. Police recovered strong evidence of his Bangladeshi nationality, including a school leaving certificate sent by his brother.
Authorities collected fingerprints from multiple locations in the building, including the bathroom window and duct area. Fakir has been remanded to five days of police custody for further investigation.
