According to family members, Jayanab sustained injuries to her head and other parts of her body. She has returned home after spending two weeks in the hospital. The victim party complained to the police but the police refused to register a complaint against the accused due to their political influence.

The police are investigating and as both sides are equally guilty, the police, are urging to find a solution to the problem through discussion.
