The officer said Fakir also tried to get an Aadhaar card for himself but failed. He said that in Mumbai, the accused chose to work in places where she was not required to submit documents, and labor contractor Amit Pandey helped her get housekeeping work in pubs and hotels in Worli and Thane.
Upon examining Fakir’s cellphone, police discovered that he had made several calls to Bangladesh and had used mobile applications to call his family in the neighboring country. Khan, 54, was repeatedly stabbed by an intruder inside his 12th-storey apartment in the building on January 16, requiring surgery.
