The incident occurred at around 2:30 am at Saif’s 11th-floor flat in the upscale ‘Satguru Sharan’ building. According to police, the attacker confronted a maid inside the residence before a violent altercation broke out.
Saif, attempting to de-escalate the situation, was stabbed multiple times.
The assailant fled the scene armed with a wooden stick and a long Hexa blade, which he used during the attack.
