A case was filed at Bahadurabad Police Station against Natasha. Eyewitnesses claimed she was intoxicated and attempted to flee the scene but was apprehended by bystanders and handed over to the police.
Natasha was charged under various sections of PPC, as she spent night at home rather than in police custody. She was later stopped from leaving the country and brought back to the police station.
As per the lawyer, Natasha was on medication for mental stress, with her lawyer arguing she was not fully aware of her actions.
