According to the boy, there were three men and a woman in the car. They all donned masks and looked unfamiliar, the boy told Manorama Online. "They offered us a paper asking us to deliver it to our mom. I refused to take it. It was then they dragged her. I had a stick in my hand and I hit them with it. But they refused to let go and dragged me through the road," the boy said.
