In a swift and efficient operation, the Mumbai Police have arrested Mohammad Shariful Islam Shehzad, a 30-year-old Bangladeshi national, for the shocking attack on Bollywood superstar Saif Ali Khan. The incident took place on Thursday, January 16, at Khan’s residence in Bandra, Mumbai. The arrest was made possible through a combination of advanced technology, including facial recognition and CCTV analysis. According to police sources, the attack occurred during an alleged burglary attempt at the actor's home.

Although Khan was unharmed, the incident left the local community in shock and raised concerns over safety. Mumbai Police quickly deployed a team of investigators to track down the suspect.

It highlights a growing reliance on digital tools for crime detection and prevention.
