Kareena Kapoor Khan recently addressed the horrifying attack on her husband, Saif Ali Khan, that took place at their Bandra home on January 16, 2024. Saif was brutally stabbed six times by an intruder. Kareena shared fresh details with the Bandra Police as part of the ongoing investigation, providing chilling insights into the incident.
Kareena’s Account of the Attack
In her statement, Kareena revealed that the intruder was violent and engaged in a physical altercation with Saif, leaving him severely injured. Despite the severity of the attack, no valuables from their home were stolen. Kareena recalled how Saif intervened to protect their younger son, Jehangir Ali Khan (Jeh). She shared:
“I was scared. Karisma (Kapoor) took me to her house. The attacker didn’t steal anything. Saif intervened to protect younger son, Jehangir (Ali Khan), and the attacker was unable to reach him. Saif tried to save children and women.”
The Aftermath of the Incident
The family managed to retreat to the 12th floor of their duplex during the attack. Kareena, deeply shaken, sought solace at her sister Karisma Kapoor’s Khar home. Following her statement, security was heightened at both Kareena’s Bandra residence and Karisma’s house.
Police Investigation and Saif’s Recovery
Saif, who sustained multiple neck wounds, was rushed to Lilavati Hospital by rickshaw, where he underwent emergency surgery. He was accompanied by his son, Taimur, and arrived covered in blood. The Mumbai Police suspect the assailant is a seasoned criminal, as initial footage shows the intruder wearing a dark-sleeved shirt and attempting to escape after the attack.
The motive remains unclear since no theft occurred. The authorities are exploring all possibilities to understand the attacker’s intent.
Jeh’s Nanny’s Harrowing Experience
Jeh’s nanny, Eilyama Philips, recounted her terrifying encounter with the attacker. She revealed that the intruder demanded ₹1 crore and threatened her when she tried to intervene. The situation escalated into a scuffle, drawing Saif’s attention, who entered the room to protect his family.
Public and Film Fraternity Shocked
