1. Her brother testified in her defense.
2. The company vouched for her helping build profits.
3. The other women took off their chadri and refused to leave.

3. The other women took off their chadri and refused to leave.
To find this answer, you should refer to the novel, "My Forbidden Place," and search for the part where Narguesse starts a rebellion among the women.

This act of solidarity could be the reason why the guards did not kill Narguesse.
