Earlier, the family had approached the taluk office to get the matter solved. The authorities
had taken the measurements and divided the plot. However, some men often encroached
on their privacy and entered the house to threaten and abuse the family.
When the family complained to the police, no action was taken.

However, on the day the incident took place, one Saithalavi who was acting as a mediator
went to the family's house at night along with eight men. The group attacked the woman's
husband and their son.

"I called the police but they said they don't have vehicle to come", the woman told India
Today.

Later, she was taken to the hospital where the doctors told her that there was a blood clot
on her placenta due to which she lost her child.

"I have registered complaints in two stations with their names. The police had arrested
only one culprit. Those men threatened me in public that they will kill me. Now, CPM
leaders are asking me to exclude Thamby from my complaint and they will arrange the
arrest of others. But I am firm on my decision, I will go forward till I get justice", the
pregnant woman's husband said.
