The Goa Police have suspended the passports of Saurabh and Gaurav Luthra, the principal owners of Goa’s Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub, where 25 people were killed in a fire on December 6. The investigation found that the Luthra brothers fled to Thailand immediately after the incident.
The Ministry of External Affairs said passports can be suspended by the Central Government or an authorised officer under Section 10A of the Passports Act 1967. A person whose passport is suspended cannot travel using that document.
