Around Rs 2 lakh worth of silver jewellery stolen from the Sanwaria Seth Temple in Bhilwara was recovered two days later, with the thief discarding the bag in the temple premises.
The Sanwaria Seth Temple in Bhilwara's Mandal town reported a theft of silver ornaments valued at roughly two lakh rupees. The items were taken from the temple premises on a recent Saturday, prompting immediate police registration of a theft case.
Two days after the incident, the stolen jewellery resurfaced when a bag containing the ornaments was found discarded within the temple compound. Temple officials discovered the bag during routine cleaning and immediately handed it over to the local police.
Police investigators have taken custody of the bag and are reviewing CCTV footage from the temple area to identify the perpetrator. Temple authorities expressed relief at the recovery but said the investigation remains open to locate the individual responsible for the theft.
