The Mumbai Police are working tirelessly to catch the assailant involved in the attempted murder of Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan. Yet, the perpetrator remains elusive. A startling development has surfaced during the investigation. It is reported that the suspect changed his clothes to avoid being caught.
Footage from CCTV cameras around Saif's residence and Bandra's Lucky Hotel area reveal that the suspect altered his appearance post the incident. Currently, more than 35 teams have been dispatched by the Mumbai Police to apprehend the culprit.
Information gathered by Mumbai Police indicates that the suspect was spotted between Bandra Police Station and the railway station. He was seen wandering in the Bandra area until 8 a.m., evading capture.
It's perplexing to the police how the suspect entered Saif Ali Khan's building, past security guards manning both entry points. The suspect was disguised in a mask and cap during the attack, but he removed them while exiting the building, raising further suspicions about his intentions.
In the case involving the attack on Saif Ali Khan, police have questioned over 40 to 50 people so far. Their statements have been recorded, with most being Saif's acquaintances. Police have also interrogated Saif's staff today.
Reports indicate that the attacker entered Saif's residence barefoot but fled wearing shoes. In new CCTV footage, three things catch the police's suspicion.
First, the assailant went upstairs barefoot but was seen escaping in shoes. Second, the bag he carried appeared full when he was entering, but seemed empty when he was leaving.
In another significant development, a piece of the knife used in the attack on Saif Ali Khan has been discovered. The police have incorporated this piece into their investigation after it was found lodged in Saif's back.
This knife fragment extends over two and a half inches, and medical professionals confirmed that it was just two millimeters away from causing serious injury by piercing Saif's spinal cord. The police are still searching for the missing part of the knife, indicating the piece with which the attacker struck.
