NDTV
Telangana Police were in Goa after a court in Mapusa ordered Edwin Nunes earlier this week to surrender in Anjuna for forging a COVID-19 certificate
Hours after his bail in Goa in a separate case, Edwin Nunes, the owner of Curlies restaurant, was arrested by Telangana Police from Anjuna yesterday in a drug case. Nunes was among the five persons arrested after the death of BJP leader Sonali Phogat this September. He was later out on bail.
The Phogat death case is being probed by the CBI. Curlies restaurant was in the news after it was found that Ms Phogat had partied at the outlet just hours before her death.
Nunes is among dozens of drug dealers wanted by the police in Hyderabad, following a drug-bust in Telangana three months ago. Sources said police from Telangana's Lalaguda were camping in Goa after the Additional Sessions Court in Mapusa had directed Nunes, earlier this week, to surrender before the police in Anjuna for forging a COVID-19 certificate.
