While Chawla was away, police towed his vehicle and found a second piece of stolen luggage. Police say Chawla confessed to stealing those bags and others over time. Chawla is free on USD 5,000 bail and couldn’t immediately be reached for comment. It is unclear if he has a lawyer. Chawla Hotels owns 17 hotels in Mississippi. The Trump partnership ended earlier this year.
