While following her, Gul Sher Jamali accompanied by his friend Imdad Ali Hajano caught her on bus stop and tried to forcibly take her back to his house.

When Sumera raised her voice, oher villagers standing at bus stop, called Gaheja police on telephone who took her in their custody and arrested Imdad Ali Hajano while Gulsher Jamali slipped away.
