Kalawati's husband, Ramesh, is a distant cousin of Gyanlal and they had worked in Ratlam together. Some family members informed Ramesh that his wife and brother-in-law were being beaten.
He immediately called some people who were part of the mob and pleaded with them to stop the assault, but no one paid any heed.

The victims then filed a police complaint against the accused and based on their allegations, the police arrested three people.
