While both the State government and the families of the victims could not hide their joy over the release of their love ones, the condition of the victims which are made up of 20 women, 24 men and nine children became a source of concern to everyone.

Looking tired, exhausted and malnourished, the victims, one after the other, walk down from the vehicle and made their way straight to the hall where the governor was already waiting to receive them.

The physical appearance of the victims tells the story of the dehumanized condition they were subjected to in the one week of captivity.
