As they tried to do so, she caught one of them and fought back, also drawing passersby with her shouts for help. As residents rushed to her aid, one of the criminals fled on the bike. The other one was caught and subjected to severe thrashing before being handed over to Mancheswar police.

As the woman sustained minor injuries in the scuffle, the police first took her to a nearby hospital for first aid and later dropped her home.
