Saif Ali Khan Stabbing Case Accused Makes Shocking Police Allegations

In a dramatic turn, the man accused of attacking Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan is now making shocking claims against the Mumbai police. Mohammed Shariful Islam Shehzad, arrested after the January 16th attack on Khan, is alleging that his arrest was illegal. Khan, who was stabbed in the neck and required surgery, was reportedly targeted for theft. But Shehzad, currently in Arthur Road Jail, argues that the police made errors in their procedures during the arrest.

Shehzad’s unexpected move has added new complexity to the case. In a petition filed in the Metropolitan Magistrate Court, he is seeking his release while withdrawing a previous bail petition. The court has asked the police for a response and adjourned the hearing to May 13th. This new development is catching the attention of both the public and the legal community, as Shehzad’s allegations call into question the conduct of the investigation.

While Saif Ali Khan recovers from the attack, his professional life continues with projects like Jewel Thief: The Heist Begins, a Netflix original film in which he plays a thief. The timing of these events has added an eerie backdrop to his onscreen roles, with the actor's real-life experience reflecting the high-stakes world his characters often navigate.

As the case continues, it’s unclear whether Shehzad's claims will lead to any changes in the investigation. The court’s ruling on May 13th may bring clarity and determine the direction of this highly publicized case.
