While there have been many narrations of what transpired during the ‘night’ of January 16, actor Saif Ali Khan, who is expected to have made almost full recovery, gave his first statement to the cops after the attack.
Several key points made by the actor have made its way to the news reports which has left the audience wondering if this was a kidnap attack, rather than an alleged robbery.
Readers would be aware that Saif Ali Khan was asked to give his first statement to the Mumbai police, so that the latter could get clearer picture of the nature of the crime.
In his statement, the actor has reportedly revealed that he was in his bedroom with wife Kareena Kapoor Khan when he heard the scream. He immediately recognized it to be his younger son Jeh’s nanny Eliyama Philip and rushed to the room, where he saw the intruder.
As a father, he immediately jumped into action which resulted in a spat leading the ‘intruder’ to stab Saif Ali Khan six times.
However, the actor insisted in his statement that he was strong enough to push away the intruder despite the wounds, also describing the quick action taken by his house staff who not only moved Jeh away from his room but also locked the intruder in the same room
