Later, Gadkar's advocate Mahesh Sabnis told the court that the accused's left forearm was paining and requested that she be given medical treatment for the same at any government hospital. After the plea, Judge Richa Khedekar called for Gadkar's medical report from the jail authorities.

Intervention
Meanwhile, Shubhada Khot, the advocate who is representing the Sabuwala family, filed an intervention application, saying that she would be assisting Public Prosecutor Prahlad Mahajan in the case.

After Sabnis objected to the intervention, Khot cited two judgements, one from the Supreme Court and the other from the Bombay High Court to buttress her request, after which the judge allowed the advocate's application to assist the public prosecutor.

Speaking to mid-day, Khot said, "After the Sabuwala family approached us, we filed the intervention application on Monday in court, and the court has allowed our intervention. On the next date, we will strongly oppose the bail."
