The theft of donations from one of India's prominent religious sites has turned into a full-scale financial investigation, with Ayodhya police now examining nearly 50 bank accounts belonging to eight arrested accused and their family members.
The probe centres on the alleged embezzlement of funds from the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya. Investigators suspect the money was not simply pocketed but systematically moved, first into personal or proxy accounts, and then potentially into properties, vehicles, jewellery, and other assets held by relatives.
