A devastating fire at the popular Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub in Arpora, Goa, on the night of December 6, claimed the lives of 25 people, mostly staff and some tourists. The blaze erupted around 11:45 PM during a live performance, reportedly triggered by pyrotechnics on the first-floor dance floor.
Within hours, Goa Police registered an FIR against the club owners, Saurabh and Gaurav Luthra, along with senior management and event organizers, citing serious violations of fire safety norms, blocked emergency exits, and use of pyrotechnics indoors. Five managers and staff members were arrested in connection with the incident.
