Well, the victim obviously doesn't get transfered in another dimension or anything like that. His body gest petrified, so he is not going anywhere. We still don't know what happens to the victim's spirit, or his mental plane. It could just be similar to when Pain absorbed Naruto's senjutsu chakra and got turned into a stone. Only that in Naruto's case it's permanent and in this case it lasts apparently 10k years. But again, it's unknown what happens to the victim's spirit.
