Mohammad Shariful Islam has been arrested for attacking Saif Ali Khan.
Highlights

- Islam claimed that the FIR is a fictional story.
- Saif Ali Khan was attacked with a knife on 16 January.
The police arrested Mohammad Shariful Islam (30) from Thane, two days after the incident. He is currently lodged in Arthur Road Jail of Mahanagar. In his bail plea filed through advocate Vipul Dushing on Friday, the accused Islam claimed that he was innocent and has no prior criminal record.
The petition states that there is no danger of Islam tampering with evidence or affecting witnesses. The petition stated, “The current FIR is nothing but a fictional story of the complainant. Therefore, he pleads for bail.”
The petition also expressed concern over the validity of arrest and cited the disregard of Section 47 of the Indian Civil Protection Code (BNSS). According to this provision, the arrested person should be informed about the reasons for his arrest and the right to bail. The hearing of the case has been postponed till July 21 for the prosecution’s response.
