In a massive development in the Saif Ali Khan’s attack case, the fingerprints found at the actor’s residence do not match the samples of Shariful Islam Shehzad, a Bangladeshi national who was arrested for allegedly attacking Saif at his residence on January 16, according to a report.
The revelation was made by the State Criminal Investigation Department (CID) which submitted negative reports on the fingerprint samples of Shariful, giving a setback to the Mumbai Police amid buzz on social media that the wrong individual has been arrested, mid-day reported.
Shariful was nabbed from Thane after a massive 3-day manhunt by the Mumbai Police and Crime Branch whose around 40 teams were assigned the job.
Arrested ‘Attacker’s’ Fingerprints Do Not Match With Those At Crime Scene
According to the report, a total of 19 fingerprint samples were taken from the crime scene at the actor’s residence and none of them matched with those of Shariful. The development raised questions over the arrest of the man who is accused of attacking Saif who underwent a six-hour-long surgery at the Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai.
The internet is already on fire with speculations that the man seen on the CCTV footage of Saif’s building and the man arrested are two different individuals.
