Missing luxury cars, deserted mansion
Police are also probing discrepancies in the brothers’ vehicle ownership. Until 2020, they reportedly had three cars; before fleeing, they possessed more than four luxury vehicles — all now untraceable. Officials are examining whether the cars were removed in a planned cover-up.
Their sprawling, newly built Goa residence — constructed just two years ago at a cost of several crores — has been abandoned since the fire. Only a dog was found on the premises.
An Interpol Blue Corner Notice remains active for both brothers as police widen the investigation into the catastrophic fire and the owners’ alleged attempt to evade arrest.
