On Sunday, a 30-year-old Bangladeshi national was arrested of stabbing Saif Ali Khan after breaking into his house. He confessed his crime, saying “haan, maine hi kiya hai (yes, I did it)”, according to sources.
According to police sources, Mohammad Shariful Islam Shehzad was arrested from near Hiranandani Estate in Kasarvadavali in Thane, about 35 kilometres from Mr Khan’s house in Mumbai’s Bandra area. The breakthrough came after over 70 hours of an intense manhunt that was launched following the attack during an attempted burglary bid in the early hours of Thursday.
After being caught, when a senior officer asked Shehzad if he was the one who had attacked Mr Khan, the accused said “haan, maine hi kiya hai”, a source said.
The police traced Shehzad to a labour camp in a forested area based on the information provided by a labour contractor.
A Mumbai court granted the city police five-day custody of Shariful Islam Shehzad.
