Goa nightclub tragedy: Managers arrested as death toll rises to 25
The Statesman Siliguri
|December 08, 2025
Hours after a massive fire at the Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub in North Goa's Arpora killed 25 people and injured six others, police on Sunday arrested the nightclub's general manager and three staff members in connection with the blaze.
The development comes shortly after the police registered an FIR against the nightclub's owners ~ Saurabh Luthra and Gaurav Luthra ~ along with the manager and the event organisers. Earlier in the day, the Arpora-Nagoa panchayat sarpanch was also detained for issuing a trade license for the nightclub's premises in 2013.
The blaze erupted around midnight at Birch by Romeo Lane, a club in the bustling Baga area that draws large crowds due to its proximity to one of Goa’s most frequented beaches.
