Corporate lawyer Janhavi Gadkar, who allegedly rammed her car into a taxi killing two persons on the Eastern Freeway, has been sent to judicial custody till June 26.
What we know today is that the alcohol level in her blood was about four times more than the permissible limit.
"Preliminary reports have suggested that the lawyer had an intake of alcohol four times than the permissible limits," a police source said quoting initial forensic report which confirms that the 35-year-old lawyer was heavily drunk at the time of the incident on June 9.
Legally, blood alcohol concentration is permissible up to 0.03 per cent, 30 mg per 100 ml of blood.
But, Gadkar's sample shows the presence of about 120 mg of alcohol concentration in 100 mg of blood, said the source. "The forensic laboratory put this (case) on priority to give the preliminary report on our request," the source said, adding, that it would take another few days for the final report to be compiled.
