The parents of Jhanavi Kukreja, who died during a New Year’s Eve party at Bhagwanti Heights in Khar, have approached the Bombay High Court seeking cancellation of bail to accused Diya Padalkar. The plea alleged that she is trying to influence the witnesses — the parents.

Months after being released on bail, Padalkar sent an emotional letter to the email of Jhanavi, saying that she would never hurt her and that people were spreading lies about her. Padalkar was granted bail by the Mumbai Sessions court on June 21 and she sent the email on July 7.
