The Curlies Restaurant in Goa received orders of demolition from the Supreme Court on Friday, 9th September, further, there will be no commercial activities taking place.
The late leader was drugged and murdered by her close aides, meanwhile, a clip of her partying at the outlet hours before her demise in the Restaurant came as a ray of light into the suspicious case. The Goa government started demolishing the disputed restaurant at Anjuna in North Goa today.
The famous attraction of youth in Anjuna beach is the Curlies restaurant located in Goa and during the ongoing investigation, ‘the cat came out of the bag’ because the property has violated coastal regulation zone norms.
The National Green Tribunal (NGT) on Thursday upheld the authority’s earlier order to demolish the shack.

In the high-profile murder case of Phogat Edwin Nunes, the owner of the restaurant was among five persons who got arrested and later granted bail.
According to reports, “The demolition squad of the district administration along with Anjuna police personnel arrived at the beach around 7.30 am to demolish the restaurant that was built in ‘no development zone in violation of the CRZ norms.”
The apex body of the court said, “There shall be staying on demolition concerning the structure in Survey No. 42.10 subject to the appellants not undertaking any commercial activities in respect of structures,” the court said.

Later, during the police investigation, the whole murder execution was figured out.
