If the internship was paid (which is usual in internships involved in doing anything copyrightable) the code is owned by the employer. If the internship was not paid then the company can argue she used company resources (tutors, etc) that were not available under other conditions. Interns are not different to regular employees in such cases. But IANAL, Pedro.
