A father-daughter like relation grows between Anjani Putra and Hassan's daughter Nuri (Saloni Pandey). Eventually, he finds out that the address given by Maria is false. Nonetheless, Nuri hacks into Maria's computer and finds out that her murderer is actually the local mayor (Oli Bigalke) who moonlights as a sociopathic rapist. Nuri sends him several emails tricking him to believe that Maria is actually alive. Then she steals a gun from her father's closet and persuades Anjani Putra to confront the murderer. Although initially frightened and reluctant, Anjani Putra finally guns the murderer down when he attempts to assault a decoy of Maria.
