The Kerala High Court has directed the Special Investigation Team (SIT) to submit the final report on the Sabarimala gold theft cases by September 25. The SIT has nearly completed investigations into the alleged gold loss from the temple's doorframes and Dwarapalaka idols, with scientific analyses pending. Meanwhile, former Travancore Devaswom Board president P.S. Prasanth was granted bail on medical grounds after suffering a brain haemorrhage during custody. The court emphasized the need to avoid further delays in concluding the probe.
