Upon suspecting illegal activities within the apartment complex, Hema Sinha promptly reported her concerns to the residential association. However, her complaints were allegedly ignored. Shortly after raising the issue, Hema claims she began facing harassment and intimidation, marking the start of what she describes as a period of mental distress and pressure.
Hema Sinha has informed the police that despite regularly paying a maintenance fee of Rs 22,000 every three months, the apartment association has withdrawn all assistance to her family.

A formal complaint has been registered under four sections, including provisions of the Prevention of Atrocities Against Women Act.

Authorities are looking into both her claims of harassment and the reported illegal operations.
