Leaked Insurance Document Causes Online Stir

On Friday, a document from Niva Bupa detailing Khan’s health insurance claim surfaced on the platform X (formerly Twitter). The document revealed that Khan had filed a claim for ₹35,95,700, with ₹25 lakh already approved for his treatment. Other information in the leaked document included his diagnosis of “injury of unspecified body region,” along with his room category and expected discharge date of January 21.

The document quickly spread across social media, with some users commenting on the swift approval process for the celebrity’s claim. Some even highlighted the apparent disparity between the experiences of high-profile individuals and the average person seeking insurance approval.

Police Investigation into the Attack

Mumbai Police have initiated an investigation into the attack, which they believe was an attempted robbery. According to DCP Dixit Gedam of Zone 9, the assailant gained access to Khan’s residence via a fire escape stairway. Authorities have arrested Waris Ali Salmani, a carpenter, who had been employed at Khan’s apartment just days before the attack. Salmani is currently being questioned by the police in connection with the stabbing.
