The Goa police on Tuesday arrested Ajay Gupta, one of the four owners of the 'Birch by Romeo Lane' nightclub, where a devastating fire claimed the lives of 25 people.
The state police had earlier issued a Look Out Circular (LOC) against Gupta and another owner, Surinder Kumar Khosla.
"This is the sixth person to be held in connection with the case," a Goa police spokesperson said.
"Earlier, an LOC was issued against him, as a police team had failed to find him at his Delhi residence when it visited it there," he said, adding that Gupta was later found in the national capital.
Two more owners of the nightclub - Saurabh Luthra and Gaurav Luthra - are on the run, and a blue corner notice has been issued against them.
The police have so far also arrested nightclub's chief general manager Rajiv Modak, general manager Vivek Singh, bar manager Rajiv Singhania, gate manager Riyanshu Thakur and employee Bharat Kohli.
Twenty-five persons were killed in the fire at the 'Birch by Romeo Lane' nightclub in Arpora in North Goa around midnight on Saturday.
