In My Forbidden Face, the guards did not kill Narguesse despite her rebellion among the women because the other women took off their chadri and refused to leave, thus showing solidarity and support for her cause. This act of unity and bravery made it challenging for the guards to harm Narguesse without facing backlash from the other women.
