Mumbai: The Mumbai police have objected to the bail plea of Shariful Fakir, who has been arrested in the case of stabbing Saif Ali Khan, saying there is enough evidence against him. The court is likely to hear the plea next week.
Police Cite CCTV and Fingerprint Matches
The prosecution claimed that fingerprints collected from the actor’s house matched with that of Fakir’s. Besides, the officials said that the 'incriminating' CCTV footage showing him in the vicinity of Khan's house and the visuals captured after the crime were sent for facial recognition. The report has been received, said the officials.
Knife Matches Injuries on Actor
The prosecution further said that the pieces recovered from Khan’s body matched with the knife recovered from the accused. Hence, these are strong evidence to prove culpability of Fakir, the prosecution added.
Accused Denies Allegations
In his defence, the accused termed the narrative in the FIR a figment of imagination. He argued that there is no material or circumstance to connect him with the crime. His plea pointed out that the probe is over and his further detention is not required.
Incident Details from Staff Nurse
As per the complaint lodged by a staff nurse at the Khan's house, Fakir first went into the bedroom of the actor's son Jehangir, but was stopped by her. She alleged that attacked her and sought Rs1 crore. Later, when Khan woke up and tried to intervene, Fakir attacked him with the knife, injuring him seriously.
