Intruder entered room of Saif's son Jeh, demanded Rs 1 crore, caretaker says in FIR

The intruder who attacked Saif Ali Khan was first spotted by the nanny of his younger son Jeh, and he demanded Rs 1 crore, according to the statement given by the caretaker to the police, which forms the basis of the FIR.

The attack took place outside Jeh's room around 2.30 am on Thursday.

The entire family - Khan, wife Kareena Kapoor, and their two sons -- four-year-old Jeh and eight-year-old Taimur - were home in the 12th floor apartment along with their five house helps.

The intruder did not force his entry or break into the actor's flat but possibly sneaked in at some point during the night with the intention of robbery, police said. The attacker, who made his escape through the stairs, remains on the run.

Recounting the horrific events to the police, Jeh's nanny, Eliyama Philip, said she was sleeping on the floor in Jeh's room and woke up around 2 am when she heard a sound and saw a man move towards the sleeping child. Panicked, she rushed to pick him up and was pushed away by the man, armed with a wooden stick and a long hexa blade. Another nanny was also sleeping in the same room.

"I sat up to see who was in the bathroom. I saw a thin and short man come out and go towards Jeh's bed,” Philip said in the statement. The man, she said, pointed a finger at her and warned her not to make a noise.

"In the scuffle, he attacked me with the blade. I got injured on the wrist. I asked him what he wanted. He said he wanted Rs 1 crore," Philip, who has been working with the star couple for four years, said.

Hearing her screams, Khan and Kareena rushed out of their room. The intruder who, Philip said, was between 35 and 40, attacked Khan with a knife. During the commotion, another house help rushed out to raise an alarm. The intruder then ran away.

CCTV footage showed the alleged assailant, wearing a red scarf and carrying a backpack, scurrying down the stairs from the sixth floor of the Satguru Sharan building.
