Saif Ali Khan ka mukka: Kareena unwilling to record statement, says Mumbai cops

Back in 2012, Saif Ali Khan was in the news for all the wrong reasons. The actor got into a brawl with a South African businessman, Iqbal Sharma, and now, CCTV footage of what happened has found its way to a television channel today. The video clearly shows the actor, accompanied by his then-girlfriend Kareena Kapoor and her sister Karisma, entering the hotel and eventually, hitting the businessman. In the clips aired on Times Now, it’s evident that the Kapoor sisters were witnesses of the incident. As far as the media was concerned, Kareena had previously acknowledged she had been with Khan when the incident took place. However, the Mumbai police says the Kapoor sisters are unwilling to record statements.

For all of who don’t really remember, here’s a quick recap of the Saif Ali Khan-Iqbal Sharma brawl.  Firstpost  had reported earlier that Sharma pointed the blame at Khan. “We crossed near the narrow passage going downstairs and at that point he came up to me, abused me and started calling me names, ” said Sharma, who suffered a broken nose and head injuries. When the actor pushed Sharma, his father-in-law intervened. Then, the actor and his three friends attacked them as well. The businessman’s father-in-law, a senior citizen, said Khan struck him on the jaw when he tried to intervene. Khan had a different story to tell. “There was an ugly incident last night where my friend and the ladies with us were abused and I was assaulted. I was hit and I was only defending myself,” Khan said in a statement, as per  Firstpost’s  report. Police had submitted the CCTV footage of the fight to the court earlier this year.
