[Star Wars] In A New Hope was Vader ever made aware that his step-brother bought the droids that he was after? Wouldn't this curious coincidence have involved him more, at least enough to interrogate Owen himself?

This always kind of bothered me. I'm sure Vader was being given regular updates on the status of the search, and I take it he would've been indifferent to the ultimate fate of Owen anyway. But it all would have been too much of a coincidence for someone like Darth Vader, right?

Why would he? He was not on the ground at the time, he was on death star or on his way there. The stormtroopers reported to some officer who did not know or care who Owen was. They had their orders and rules of engagement, and they did what they did, and only reported it after the fact.
