A devastating fire at a Goa nightclub claimed 25 lives, primarily from suffocation in the underground kitchen area. Police sources revealed the wooden structure and furniture intensified the blaze, while only two exit gates trapped victims. Post-mortem reports showed 23 bodies had no burn injuries, indicating oxygen loss deaths, with only two charred bodies. Four arrests made including gate manager Thakur. Owners Saurabh and Gaurav Luthra absconded to Delhi with police teams pursuing them. Authorities will suspend officials who granted trade licenses amid safety violation probes. Goa government airlifted three Jharkhand victims' bodies to Ranchi. No blast occurred; combustible interiors caused rapid spread.
