Mumbai was shaken when actor Saif Ali Khan was stabbed by an intruder at his residence. Amid the ongoing investigation, a carpenter working at Saif’s house was detained for questioning. The carpenter’s wife has now spoken out, strongly defending her husband’s innocence.
In a video shared by IANS, the carpenter’s wife explained that her husband was called by Saif Ali Khan’s manager for furniture work. “He went with a team of five people, completed the work, and returned home,” she said, adding that CCTV footage corroborates her claims.
She further revealed that after news of the attack broke, her husband was summoned by Saif’s manager. “We were frightened, thinking someone might be plotting against him. He called the manager to clarify if there was an issue and went immediately when asked,” she stated.
When she attempted to meet her husband at the police station, she was denied entry as the interrogation was ongoing. Authorities assured her that her husband was not arrested but only being questioned. “I was told he will be released once the necessary orders are issued,” she added.
The carpenter’s wife emphasized her husband’s innocence, urging authorities to conduct a fair investigation. “He simply went to do his job and returned home. He had nothing to do with this terrible incident,” she insisted.
