Following the attack on actor Saif Ali Khan, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP from Gorakhpur Ravi Kishan said that it was a tragic incident. He said that Mumbai is a safe place and Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis is taking the concern over safety very seriously.
Ravi Kishan who is also an actor, took a holy dip at Triveni Ghat on Friday. Ravi Kishan further said, "It is a tragic incident. We have worked together. Saif has been a friend of mine since 1993. I pray for his recovery. The security arrangements have been made in the building. The administration is looking into this matter. Strict actions will be taken against the culprit once caught. Mumbai is a safe place. CM Devendra Fadnavis is taking the issue seriously. CM takes responsibility for safety of everyone from celebrity to common man." Bollywood Actor Saif Ali Khan was attacked by an intruder in his 11th-floor Bandra flat in the early hours of Thursday. The incident occurred when an intruder allegedly confronted the actor's maid at his residence. As Saif attempted to intervene and de-escalate the situation, it escalated into a violent altercation, resulting in the actor sustaining several stab wounds. Saif underwent surgery at Lilavati Hospital under the supervision of a team of doctors. As per doctors, Saif sustained a major injury to the thoracic spinal cord due to a lodged knife in the spine, and surgery was performed to remove a 2.5-inch-long knife from the actor's spine and repair his 'leaking spinal fluid'.While Saif is "out of danger", doctors are continuing to monitor him. The Mumbai Police on Friday clarified that no person related to the case of actor Saif Ali Khan had been detained so far. Earlier it was reported that one person had been brought to the Bandra Police station for questioning, however, the Police have now ruled out that possibility saying that the person is not related to the Saif Ali Khan assault case. Meanwhile, Maharashtra Junior Minister for Home (Urban) Yogesh Kadam on Friday said that there was no involvement of any gang in the incident. "It was an attempt of theft only and there is no gang involved in this incident...police are further probing the case," the minister said, adding, "Saif Ali Khan never asked for any Security. This attack was not part of any gang. The accused had entered the house with the motive of theft only. A scuffle broke out between Saif Ali Khan and the suspect in which the actor got injured." (ANI)
