Lavkesh Bajaj, owner of the Flourish Stay B&B in Malviya Nagar, was arrested and booked under multiple charges, including culpable homicide not amounting to murder, as authorities intensify their probe into one of the deadliest hotel fires in the capital in recent years.
According to television reports, Bajaj told investigators during questioning that he passed by the hotel after the blaze had already broken out. However, instead of stopping to help with rescue efforts, he allegedly left the area, citing fear as the reason for his actions.
