The court has refused to send Mohammad Shariful Islam, accused of attacking Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan, to police custody. Mumbai Police sought his two-day police custody, but Magistrate Komal Rajput said that further police custody is not appropriate at this stage. Therefore, he is sent to 14 days judicial custody. The magistrate also advised the police to read the Indian Judicial Code.

Magistrate Komal Rajput said, "You should read the first BNS. The accused has been in police custody for more than 10 days. More custody than this is not appropriate. He will be sent to judicial custody now. If something new comes out in the investigation, then after 30-40 days he can be sent to police custody again for 2-3 days." The police told the court that during the last five days they have recovered the shoes of the accused.

Ajay Lingurkar, the investigating officer in the case, said, "We have investigated and found out from where the accused bought the weapons and tools to break into the house. We have given his sample for facial recognition process. The accused is very smart. He did a recce of the area before the theft at Saif Ali Khan's house. We need his custody for further investigation and interrogation."

Investigating officer Ajay Lingurkar also said that a team of Mumbai Police is in Kolkata to find out how the accused entered India and how he sent money to his family in Bangladesh. The accused's lawyers Sandeep Sherkhane and Dinesh Prajapati argued against police remand. The magistrate refused to give immediate custody to the police after reviewing the investigation so far.

Meanwhile, the police van carrying the accused Mohammad Shariful Islam Shahzad from the police station to the court broke down on the way. Bandra court is less than two kilometers away from the police station. But after going 100 meters ahead, the police van broke down and the policemen were seen pushing it. Despite this, the van did not start, so another vehicle was arranged in a hurry. After this, the police reached the court with the accused.

Earlier, Mumbai Police had said that sufficient evidence has been found against the accused. People who were in contact with him are being questioned. But the role of any other person has not been revealed yet. DCP Dixit Gedam said that a detailed investigation has been done on the basis of clues in the crime number 85/25 registered in Bandra police station. During this, sufficient evidence has been found against the accused Shariful Islam.

On the question of mismatch of the accused's fingerprint, the DCP said that the police has not received any report related to the fingerprint yet. The fingerprints have been sent to the bureau for investigation. We are waiting for the report. Let us tell you that so far two types of media reports have come out regarding the fingerprint. In one it was said that the fingerprint matched, while in the other it was revealed that there was a mismatch.

Additional CP Paramjit Singh Dahiya said that Saif Ali Khan reached Lilavati Hospital at 2:40 am on 16 January. We were informed about this case by the hospital. A case has been registered under sections 311, 312, 331(4), 331(6) and 331(7) of the Indian Penal Code. In this connection, a woman has also been questioned in Chhapra of Nadia district of West Bengal on Monday.
