The Mumbai Police have detained floor-polishing workers for questioning in connection with the Saif Ali Khan stabbing case, the officials said on Thursday.
Khan lives on the 12th floor of an elite residential society in Bandra where he was stabbed six times by a thief on Thursday morning. He was admitted to Lilavati Hospital for treatment.
The police were already questioning three people in the incident — domestic servant, lift man, and security guard.
The police are also examining the CCTV footage of the building, based on which they have found two suspects, out of whom one could be the attacker, sources said.
The police are attempting to ascertain their identities. They will also record the statements of seven house helps who stay at the actor’s residence all the time.
The Mumbai Police have formed 15 teams to probe the case.
