The incident took place on the night of 5th September when Chatterjee was returning home with her husband, Deep Satpathi, from a party.

While they were on their way, Chatterjee heard a girl screaming for help from a car that was behind their car. She immediately asked her husband to stop the car. In an interview Deep Satpathi said:
We were coming back after attending my mother-in-law’s birthday when my wife heard a girl screaming for help from a car behind our car and asked me to stop the car.
