Mumbai corporate lawyer arrested for culp homicide after allegedly drink driving her Audi into taxi, killing 2

NDTV reported that vice president (legal) of Reliance Industries and former Talwar Thakore Associates managing associate Janhavi Gadkar had allegedly killed two persons in a taxi while driving her Audi Q3 drunk in Mumbai last night on the wrong side of a major freeway.

The 35 year old lawyer has been arrested by police, after killing Mohd Salim Saboowala, 50, and the taxi’s driver Mohd Hussain Sayaed, 57. Three passengers survived the crash which mangled the taxi and caused heavy damage to the Audi.

She has been booked with culpable homicide not amounting to murder and rash driving, said the police, relying on video evidence shot minutes before the crash.

She had worked at TTA between 2007 and 2013, according to her Linked in profile.
