Saif Ali Khan stabbing case legal proceedings

Overview

In August 2026, legal proceedings continued in a Mumbai court regarding a January 2025 stabbing incident at the Bandra residence of Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan. The incident involved Mohammad Shariful Islam, a Bangladeshi national, who allegedly entered the home to commit robbery, demanding ₹1 crore and attacking Khan and a staff nurse.

Initially, the court formally framed charges against the accused, including house trespass, attempted dacoity, and illegal entry into India using a fictitious identity. Following these charges, the accused approached the court seeking to plead guilty to the offenses, which include robbery with a deadly weapon and causing grievous hurt under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. The court has requested a response from the prosecution and adjourned the matter to September 11.
