A local court in Goa Wednesday granted bail to Saurabh and Gaurav Luthra, owners of Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub, in connection with the fire at a Goa nightclub on December 6 last year.

As many as 25 people were killed in the deadly blaze in North Goa’s Arpora.

Last Friday, their anticipatory bail plea in connection with a case of alleged forgery and cheating was rejected by a court.

The brothers and some others are accused of forging a no-objection certificate (NOC) from the Health Office and of using it to obtain excise and other licences and permissions to run the nightclub. A second FIR was lodged against Luthras and their associates for allegedly fabricating documents to obtain permissions to run the club.
