BIG TWIST in Saif Ali Khan case as accused’s fingerprints don’t match the ones found at his Bandra home

After the detention of the suspect implicated in the Saif Ali Khan assault case, Mumbai Police declared they would employ facial recognition technology to ascertain if the Bangladeshi man depicted in CCTV images corresponds to the person in question. Nevertheless, new information indicates that the suspect’s fingerprints do not align with those discovered at the actor’s Bandra residence. To clarify these discrepancies, police have submitted further samples for examination.

The latest findings from the investigation show that the fingerprints found at the scene do not match those of Shariful.

According to reports, the Mumbai Police submitted fingerprints they had collected to the state’s Criminal Investigation Department (CID) for analysis. The CID’s automated report revealed inconsistencies, as there was no matching result. Consequently, the police decided to send more samples for further examination in order to progress with their ongoing investigation.

For those unfamiliar, Saif Ali Khan experienced an assault by an intruder armed with a knife inside his apartment located on the 12th floor of Satguru Sharan building in Bandra, on the morning of January 16. The actor sustained several stab wounds, among them one close to his neck and spine, and was immediately taken to Lilavati Hospital where he underwent two surgical procedures. He was released from the hospital on January 21.

On January 19th, the Mumbai Police arrested a man later identified as Shariful Islam Shehzad Mohammad Rohilla Amin Fakir who was 30 years old, following CCTV recordings that showed an intruder on the building’s staircase.

A Bangladeshi individual, who illegally crossed into India, asserted that someone had offered him forged Indian citizenship papers in return for payment, an act that ultimately resulted in a break-in at an actor’s home. The authorities are currently on the lookout for the person said to have made such promises.

To help find the culprit, the police requested aid from the Western Railway and employed facial recognition tech to compare the trespasser’s features with possible matches in their database.

Due to the blurry nature of the video showing the potential culprit exiting the building, an approach was employed to identify likely suspects more precisely. Even though Shariful was apprehended due to CCTV proof, the police are persisting with their probe to bolster their case further.
