As soon as the authorities got to know the truth about the identity and motives of Hewings they did not waste even a minute in getting the paperwork done to search Hewings’ house. When they invaded his house they stumbled across a backpack, the one that Hewing had with him when he was at Gloucestershire Railway station.

But the real shock that police received was when they opened the backpack. The bag that Hewings carried with him had two sharp knives, a glass case stuffed with co-codamol which is a very strong sedative and a roll of duct tape. These things pointed out the evil and dark plans Hewings had for that teenage girl.

When the police found the bag stuffed with all kinds of dangerous articles they arrested Hewing and very soon he was presented to Gloucestershire Crown Court.

“From about September to November last year your chat logs reveal your pedophile tendencies and desires,” said Judge Michael Cullum. “You said, ‘I have a teen in mind but she needs to be kidnapped,’” the judge added.

Although Hewings wasn’t able to complete his plans, he had all sorts of dark ideas on his mind and police had the proof of the same. These pieces of evidence were enough to get Hewings convicted. Hewings manipulated her in believing that she would be safe with him. And this was the sole reason that Girl agreed to travel with him.

It was Satbir Arora, the taxi driver who was the unsung hero of the whole act. If it wouldn’t have been for him the girl might have been with that monster. It was his perseverance and his strength of character that saved that girl from a person like Hewing.

Just a night before the abduction of that teenage girl was to take place, she had booked a cab in the wee hours of the morning. It was as if God himself had sent Satbir to help that little girl out of this mess. He later said that he sensed some wrong vibes since the very first moment he saw her.
