Reacting to the arrest of accused in connection with the stabbing case of Saif Ali Khan, Deputy CM Ajit Pawar said, “Some opposition leaders have stated that law & order collapsed in Mumbai after the incident of attack on actor Saif Ali Khan.

He just entered the house with the intention of robbery.”

After Mumbai Police said that the attacker arrested in connection with the stabbing case of Saif Ali Khan entered India illegally from Bangladesh and worked as a labourer in Mumbai, Shiv Sena MP Naresh Mhaske said, “The labourers that come here, their nationality should be checked.

The police need to recover the clothes worn by him on that day. Hence, custodial interrogation is required. The police also needs to recover the knife that was used by the accused. The learned defence council has said that no notice was given to the accused U/S43A of the BNS.”

The court added, “After having considered the submission of the defence and the prosecution i find that they are well founded allegations. The investigation is at early stage. The accused has been arrested earlier today. The police therefore are justified in asking sufficient period for an investigation.

While demanding accused’s 14-day custody, police said, “The attacker is ruthless as he stabbed Saif Ali Khan several times. We need him in custody to collect more evidence.”

Police suspect that he may not be an Indian citizen but possibly a Bangladeshi national. Now, think about this—BJP has been in power at the Centre for 10-12 years, and if this person is indeed a Bangladeshi national, roaming freely in Mumbai, committing theft and attacks, then who is responsible? This was a high-profile case, so it got detected. But if the same happened to a common person, no one would have known. There could be countless Bangladeshis living in Maharashtra, particularly in Mumbai, but who is responsible for investigating this?”
