The second part of the knife was found in the children’s room at Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor’s Bandra home. The recovered knife piece has been sent for forensic analysis and fingerprint examination.
For those unaware, the first part was removed from Saif Ali Khan’s body during surgery at the hospital. The blade fragment had been lodged in Khan’s back and was extracted by doctors during the procedure.
According to a statement previously shared by Dr. Nitin Dange, Chief Neurosurgeon at Lilavati Hospital, the actor faced a significant risk of paralysis during the incident. Dr. Dange noted that the knife lodged near Saif Ali Khan’s spinal cord was dangerously close, and if it had penetrated even 2mm deeper, paralysis could have occurred.

The suspect, identified as Mohammad Alian, initially provided a false identity but later confessed to breaking into the actor’s home and carrying out the attack.
