It is worth noting that Osra Hill is a sensitive area in Meghalaya's Shillong. As per the report, the couple rented the Activa from a local agency before heading to Osra Hill. Raja Raghuvanshi's elder, Sachin Raghuvanshi, tried to reach out to his brother but failed. At first, Sachin thought that his brother was unreachable due to network issues, but became worried when Raja and Sonam's mobile phones were switched off since May 24.

After several unsuccessful attempts to contact the couple, Sonam's brother, Govind and Raja's brother, Vipin, reached Shillong by emergency flight. In Shillong, Govind traced the couple's nearby location using their photo through Google Maps. Later, he contacted the person who gave the scooter to the couple on rent.
