]]>Gupta had been detained in Delhi for questioning regarding the incident, and was produced before Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Vinod Joshi, who approved the police request for transit remand.
The court acknowledged the ongoing air travel disruptions caused by widespread IndiGo flight cancellations while allowing the transfer period.
The judge also instructed authorities to ensure that Gupta receives appropriate medical attention during custody, noting his spinal injury and other health-related issues.
Goa Police had previously issued a Look Out Circular (LOC) for Gupta after a search at his Delhi residence proved unsuccessful. A senior officer confirmed that Gupta was later located and detained in the capital, and that he will be formally arrested once he is brought to Goa.
Two of the nightclub’s main owners, Saurabh Luthra and Gaurav Luthra, are suspected to have escaped to Phuket, Thailand, shortly after the tragic incident. Authorities have secured an Interpol Blue Corner Notice to help trace them. Another co-owner, British national Surinder Kumar Khosla, is also under an LOC.
Meanwhile, police have arrested five individuals connected to the nightclub’s operations: chief general manager Rajiv Modak, general manager Vivek Singh, bar manager Rajiv Singhania, gate manager Riyanshu Thakur and staff member Bharat Kohli.
The fire, which broke out around midnight on December 6 at the Arpora-based nightclub in North Goa, resulted in the deaths of 25 people and triggered a large-scale investigation into safety and management lapses.

]]>Special Judge Vishal Gogne issued notices while hearing a revision petition that disputes the magistrate’s September 11 ruling.
The earlier order had rejected the complaint, stating that the allegations appeared crafted to confer legal authority on the court despite lacking merit, substance, or jurisdictional validity.
The judge has scheduled the case for further hearing on January 6.
The revision plea was submitted by advocate Vikas Tripathi, who serves as vice president of the Central Delhi Court Bar Association at Rouse Avenue courts.
Representing Tripathi, senior advocate Pavan Narang told the magisterial court that Sonia Gandhi’s name was allegedly added to the New Delhi constituency voter list in January 1980, a period during which she had not yet become an Indian citizen.
The petitioner further alleged that the entry involved falsification of records and resulted in deception of a public authority.
However, the magistrate dismissed the original plea seeking an investigation, concluding that the complainant was attempting to trigger criminal proceedings by urging the court to assume a jurisdiction it did not legally possess.

]]>Special Judge Vishal Gogne, in a detailed 244-page order, observed that there is substantial suspicion that Lalu Yadav was the key conspirator behind the scam. The court charged the trio, along with 11 others, under serious offenses including criminal conspiracy, fraud, abuse of official position and misconduct by a public servant. The court has scheduled daily hearings starting from October 27
Allegations Against the Yadav Family
According to the court’s findings, Lalu Prasad Yadav, during his tenure as Railway Minister, is alleged to have conspired with Sujata Hotels’ directors Bijay and Vinay Kochhar to manipulate the tendering process related to IRCTC hotels in Ranchi and Puri.
The Kochhar brothers allegedly transferred a valuable plot of land in Patna to a company linked to Lalu’s close aide Prem Chand Gupta. That company eventually came under the control of the Yadav family, and the land was officially transferred to them at a highly undervalued rate.
The judge noted that the evidence points toward serious doubts about Lalu’s role in skewing the tender process for personal gain, resulting in loss to the exchequer and undue benefits to his family.
Court Rejects Political Motive Argument
The defense had argued that the case was politically motivated, especially as it has resurfaced just before elections. However, the court dismissed the claim, stating that political motivation cannot be used as a blanket defense. It also added that if today’s investigation is being labeled as politically driven, it could equally be argued that the earlier closure of the case was politically influenced.
“The court does not accept the argument of political vendetta,” the judge said.
Tejashwi Yadav Calls It Political Vendetta
In response to the court’s decision, Tejashwi Yadav maintained that the case is part of a **“political witch hunt.”** He stated:
“This is clearly a case of revenge politics. As elections approach, such cases are deliberately brought up. We respect the judiciary and will fight the case legally and politically.”
BJP Responds: “This Is the RJD Model
BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad criticized the RJD, alleging that the party has a history of corruption.
“Taking land from the poor in exchange for job promises, manipulating contracts, and engaging in massive scams like fodder and bitumen — this is the governance model under the RJD,” he said.
Conclusion
As the case progresses, it’s poised to play a significant role in the political discourse ahead of the Bihar elections. The trial’s timing — starting just as campaigns heat up — ensures it will remain in the spotlight, with potential implications for both legal accountability and political fortunes.
