A Special Investigation Team (SIT) report to the Kerala High Court alleges a conspiracy to steal more gold from the Sabarimala temple, including from Dwarapalaka idols and sanctum sanctorum door frames. The SIT claims accused individuals, including a businessman, a jeweller, and a CEO, met secretly to destroy evidence. The report also points to official misconduct and administrative lapses by Travancore Devaswom Board (TDB) officials, suggesting a larger organized crime to misappropriate gold from various temple artifacts.
