Saif Ali Khan was stabbed by the intruder multiple times during Thursday’s incident inside his 12th floor apartment at `Satguru Sharan’ building in the upscale Bandra West area of Mumbai.
On Saturday, a 31-year-old suspect was detained at the Durg railway station in Chhattisgarh, reported PTI.
The person, whose photo had been shared by Mumbai Police with the Railway Protection Force (RPF), was travelling by the Jnaneshwari Express which runs between Mumbai Lokmanya Tilak Terminus (LTT) to Kolkata Shalimar.
Aakash Kailash Kannojia, the detained man, was “still a suspect”, Mumbai police said in a statement later, adding that further action will be taken after due verification.
Earlier on Friday, a carpenter had been held as he resembled the screengrab of the suspected assailant from the CCTV footage at the actor’s building, but he was released later as he was found to have no link to the crime.
Mumbai Police had formed 30 teams to nab the assailant and recovered CCTV footage showing a suspect’s face.
According to doctors at Lilavati Hospital where he is being treated, Saif is recovering well and will be discharged soon. Neurosurgeon Dr Nitin Dange said that Khan had four main wounds; two in the hand, one on the neck and “the most deep and dangerous” one in the spine.
Meanwhile, Maharashtra Minister of State for Home Yogesh Kadam has said that robbery was the motive and no underworld gang was involved.
