Kaushlendra's family has also filed a cross-complaint, accusing the girl's father and brother of molesting a woman member of their family. No one has been arrested so far.

The Station House Officer(SHO) said the girl's father lodged an FIR against Kaushlendra, his brothers and their father, alleging that they came to his house and abducted his daughter at gunpoint after beating them up.

He alleged that Kaushlendra's family took cash and jewellery, an FIR was lodged on the basis of the complaint.
