Luthra Brothers Evade Police in Goa Fire Case
Two brothers, Saurav and Gaurav Luthra, and their associate Ajay Gupta, who own a nightclub in Goa, are in trouble.
A fire at their nightclub killed 25 people.
The brothers and Gupta were arrested and brought back from Thailand and Delhi, respectively.
They keep saying they are sick to avoid answering police questions.
The police think they are just trying to waste time.
The court has extended Gupta's police remand by four days.
There are also some problems with their documents.
The police are trying to find out what really happened.
Saurav and Gaurav Luthra, co-owners of Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub, are evading police questions in Goa.
Ajay Gupta, another co-owner, had his police remand extended by four days.
The brothers and Gupta frequently complain of medical issues, but exams show no problems.
Eight persons, including the three owners and five staff members, have been arrested.
A Look Out Circular has been issued against Surinder Kumar Khosla, a British citizen and nightclub owner.
