New Delhi:
A new photo of the Luthra brothers surrounded by Thai officials at an immigration facility has emerged. The two were detained from their hotel room in Thailand following a request from India.
They will be taken to Bangkok tomorrow morning for legal formalities and handed over to Indian authorities, sources said.
Saurabh and Gaurav Luthra are wanted in India in connection with a fire tragedy that killed 25 at a nightclub owned by them in Goa.
In the latest photo, the two brothers are seen sitting on chairs in front of Thai officers at the Phuket Immigration Control Centre (PICC).
The Luthras fled India soon after the tragedy, anticipating arrest as the probe brought them into the limelight. The Delhi-based restaurateurs also approached a court in the national capital through their lawyer seeking anticipatory bail, arguing that they couldn’t be held responsible for the fire since they were not present at the nightclub during the incident.
