The Indian Express reported that 44 days after her arrest, while still in jail without bail and the court expected to give its order on 24 July:

Arguing for lawyer Janhavi Gadkar to be released on bail, her advocate said that the traffic authorities were maligning the law fraternity by putting up posters which show two cars colliding and depict a lawyer’s white collar with a caption “No one is above the law, not even the law”.

Her advocate added that there was no reason to “tamper” with evidence, if Gadkar was released. “Their investigation is all over. What is there to tamper with? They should and they must’ve taken adequate precaution. There is no allegation that I have tried to influence the police or tampered with evidence until now and there is no material to corroborate such allegations,” Gadkar’s lawyer Mahesh Sabnis argued.
