\nGaurav Luthra and Saurabh Luthra are the co-owners of the nightclub in North Goa - 'Birch by Romeo Lane', where 25 people were killed in a fire on December 6. They fled to Phuket within hours of the fire tragedy at the Goa nightclub and had been staying in Patong. They were detained when they stepped out to collect a food packet from an Indian food joint on December 11. \n
\n
\nOfficials said teams from the Goa Police and Delhi Police will be present at the airport. Following their arrival, the brothers will be produced before the Patiala House Court, after which the Goa Police is expected to seek transit remand to take them to Goa for further investigation.\n

\n
\nFive managers and staff members have already been arrested by Goa Police in connection with the fire that broke out at the nightclub located in Arpora, 25 km from Panaji, around midnight. Police have recorded the statements of at least 50 persons in the case so far.\n
