Pune Fort Murder: FDA Seals Spice Shop Belonging To Murder Accused Siya Goyal’s Family, Seizes Goods Worth ₹8 Lakh

In a major development connected to the high-profile Lohagad Fort murder case, the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA)—under the leadership of Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe—has sealed a spice business owned by the family of prime accused Siya Goyal in Pune.

FDA inspectors raided BG Goyal & Company, located in Pune's bustling Market Yard area, citing serious labeling deficiencies, non-compliance, and suspicions of food adulteration.

Seizure Of Stock Worth ₹8 Lakh At Market Yard Facility

The enforcement drive saw FDA teams conduct an exhaustive search of the premises. During the inspection, officials impounded over 4,000 kilograms of food products valued at approximately ₹8.14 lakh.

The confiscated inventory included major consignments of ground turmeric powder, sesame seeds, and soybean chunks. Food safety officers collected multiple samples on-site and dispatched them to state laboratories for detailed chemical analysis to determine whether adulterants were present.

Authorities issued formal shutdown orders, mandating that the Market Yard shop remain completely sealed until laboratory test results are returned and administrative inquiries conclude.

Escalating Pressure Following Shocking Lohagad Fort Crime

The FDA's regulatory crackdown follows intense public and media scrutiny surrounding Siya Goyal, who stands accused alongside her lover Chetan Chaudhary of murdering her fiancé, Ketan Agrawal.

Agrawal had initially been reported dead after allegedly falling off a steep cliff at Lohagad Fort near Pune. However, detailed police investigations subsequently revealed a sinister plot, uncovering evidence that Goyal and Chaudhary had staged the accidental fall to murder Agrawal.

State authorities confirmed that while police continue gathering forensic evidence for the murder trial, regulatory bodies will continue strictly evaluating compliance across associated family enterprises.
