**Mumbai, India** – A Bangladeshi national, Mohammad Shariful Islam Shehzad, has been arrested for allegedly breaking into the Mumbai home of Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan and stabbing him six times. The incident occurred late Wednesday night.

According to Deputy Commissioner of Police Dixit Gedam, Shehzad, who had been living in Mumbai illegally for the past four months under the alias Bijoy Das, entered the actor’s Bandra residence through a fire exit. He was apprehended in Thane and is currently being interrogated. Police have recovered items suggesting his Bangladeshi origin and have added Passport Act charges to the existing case.

Shehzad allegedly confronted and stabbed the actor after demanding money. Saif Ali Khan’s maid, who initially spotted the intruder, was also injured during the attack. The actor was rushed to Lilavati Hospital and is reportedly recovering well.

The incident has sparked widespread concern regarding safety and security in Mumbai. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis defended the city’s safety record, stating that while incidents occur, it’s inaccurate to label Mumbai unsafe based on a single event.

Police say the investigation is ongoing. Shehzad is facing charges related to illegal entry into India, assault, and robbery. The attack has raised questions about security measures in the city and prompted calls for improved law enforcement.
