MUMBAI: Despite CCTV footage, the burglar who had stabbed the 54-year-old Bollywood Actor Saif Ali Khan with a knife six times outside his residence here in the early hours of Thursday (16th Jan 2024), has not been nabbed yet.

Earlier, his wife (Bollywood actor Kareena Kapoor Khan), by means of Instagram, informed about the attempted robbery and the attack. Requesting the Media to avoid speculation she stated: “While we appreciate the concern and support, the constant scrutiny and attention are not only overwhelming but also pose a significant risk to our safety. I kindly request that you respect our boundaries and give us the space we need to heal.”

Dr. Nitin Dange, one of the doctors treating him, has informed the Media that Saif Ali Khan (who was stabbed on his spine, neck and hand) was on the path of complete recovery: “He sustained a major injury to the thoracic spinal cord due to a lodged knife in the spine. Surgery was performed to remove the knife and also repair the leaking spinal fluid.” He further told that Saif Ali Khan was stable and was able to walk.
Dr. Niraj Uttamnani , who is also the part of the team handling the case, said if the knife had penetrated any further, there would have been an injury to the spine. He escaped by just a distance of just two millimetres. Interestingly, the attacker, who demanded Rs. 1 crore from the actor, is said to be a relative of Saif’s staffer. Saif is son of India’s former cricket captain Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi and actress Sharmila Tagore.
