On 27 November, Furuta's parents contacted the police about their daughter's disappearance.
In order to discourage further investigation, the kidnappers coerced her into calling her mother. She was forced to say that she had run away, but was safe and staying with a friend.
Furuta was also forced to ask her mother to stop the police investigation into her disappearance.
When Minato's parents were present, Furuta was forced to pose as the girlfriend of one of the kidnappers.
They later dropped this pretence when it became clear that Minato's parents would not report them to the police.
The Minatos stated that they did not intervene because they were aware of Miyano's yakuza connections and feared retaliation, and because their own son was increasingly violent towards them.
Minato's brother was also aware of the situation, but did nothing to prevent it.
Furuta was held captive in the Minato residence for forty days, during which time she was abused, raped and tortured.
The group responsible also invited and encouraged their other yakuza friends to torment Furuta.
