The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is conducting searches at multiple locations since early this morning in connection with the Goa nightclub fire case. The probe agency said the raids are aimed at probing the money-laundering angle linked to the illegal functioning of the club and the role of its promoters, in the backdrop of the fire incident in Goa that claimed 25 lives on 6th December last year. According to the ED, searches are underway at eight to nine locations across Delhi and Goa.
These include the residential and office premises of the Luthra brothers and Ajay Gupta, owners of Birch by Romeo Lane in Arpora, Goa. The searches also cover premises at Outram Lanes in Kingsway Camp, Tatvam Villas in Gurugram, and the residences of Roshan Redkar, the then Sarpanch, and Panchayat Secretary Raghuvir Bagkar in Goa.
They are accused of facilitating and issuing illegal trade licences and no-objection certificates. The ED teams are also conducting searches at the premises of Surinder Kumar Khosla to examine the money-laundering angle linked to the illegal conversion of khazan land, or salt pan land, on which the nightclub was located.
