When Stephen was captured by members of the Abu Sayyaf, Kalyani and the others presented themselves as being bound with tight ropes. When the men brought in Razon and began beating him, Kalyani felt great sympathy for him and cried. When Monica escaped and a gunfight ensued, Kalyani took cover and cowered for the duration of the fight. At the end of the fight, she worriedly pointed out that one of the men on the ground was not actually dead. This allowed Stephen to see the grenade in the man’s hand and get far enough away to avoid being killed by the blast.[4]
