Police also told court that if granted bail, the accused might try to flee India and not appear before the court during the trial. In a big development in the Saif Ali Khan stabbing case, the Mumbai police have now opposed the bail plea of the Bangladeshi national, who was accused of attacking the Bollywood actor with a knife in January this year. As reported by PTI, police officials told the court that they have 'strong evidence" against the accused. Citing a Forensic Science Laboratory report, police reiterated before the sessions court their earlier claim knife fragments that got lodged near the actor's spine during the attack as well as a part found at the crime spot, have matched with the weapon recovered from the accused, Shariful Islam. Police also told the court that if granted bail, the accused might try to flee India and not appear before the court during the trial. 'The crime committed by the accused is of a very serious nature and strong evidence is available against him," they argued. This comes two days after the accused filed a bail application and claimed that the FIR against him is nothing but a 'fictional story". For the unversed, Saif Ali Khan was stabbed by an intruder at his Mumbai residence in the wee hours of January 16. It was reported that at around 2 AM, the actor heard noises when one of his female employees was attacked in Jeh's room. This prompted Saif to intervene, which led to an altercation between the two and the attacker injured both Saif and the female employee. Islam has been accused of breaking into Saif Ali Khan's Mumbai residence with the intent of robbing. He has also been accused of attacking the actor and his staff member using a wooden weapon and a blade. Saif Ali Khan was stabbed six times by the robber, following which he was rushed to the hospital. The actor was discharged on January 21.
