Once the act was over, the duo was then taken into a car. At around 3am, 2 of the assailants went out to buy diesel with Rs. 500 with them. When they returned, they brought something to eat with some water which was offered to the duo also. They then began blackmailing the victims. An amount of Rs. 25lakhs was demanded by the assailants. The girl took some hundreds and offered her gold ring along with that. But all in vein.

After negotiations, the gang reduced the amount to Rs. 10 lakh and then to Rs5 lakh.
