Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan was stabbed in the back by an intruder who broke into his Bandra apartment during the early hours of January 16. The attacker reportedly targeted Khan as part of a robbery attempt. The actor sustained six injuries, one of which was near his spine.

A photo has now emerged showing the broken piece of the knife that was surgically removed from Saif Ali Khan's back. The fragment, which had been lodged close to his spine, was carefully removed during an emergency surgery performed at the Lilavati Hospital. Doctors had earlier confirmed that Khan’s spinal fluid had leaked as a result of the attack.
