How did the accused enter Saif Ali Khan¡¯s apartment?
The preliminary reports of the investigation suggest that the man climbed the stairs to the seventh-eighth floor of the building where Saif Ali Khan stays.
The accused then entered the duct area, climbed to the 12th floor using a pipe, and entered the actor's flat via the bathroom window. This was when he came out from the bathroom, Saif Ali Khan spotted him, which then led to a chain of events that culminated in the knife attack, the police officials explained earlier.
Maharashtra government downplays attack on Saif Ali Khan, but three high-profile incidents in a year raise serious concerns about the state's law and order situation. If celebrities are not safe, what about the common man?
