Ayodhya Police Raid Homes of Eight Accused in Ram Temple Donation Theft Case
Two days after arresting eight individuals on charges of theft, misappropriation of cash, and embezzlement of funds and valuables donated for the Ram temple, the Ayodhya police conducted simultaneous searches of their residences on Sunday. The accused are currently in judicial custody.
“The searches were carried out as part of the investigation to gather evidence,” a senior police officer said.
The coordinated raids came a day before the accused were scheduled to appear in court after their three-day judicial custody. Eight police teams, each comprising male and female officers, searched the homes where the accused had been living in Ayodhya. The teams verified the addresses before executing the searches simultaneously.
Earlier, the police reported recovering Rs 79.8 lakh from seven of the eight arrested men.
