The Kerala High Court has dismissed bail pleas filed by former Travancore Devaswom Board and Sabarimala officials in the Sabarimala gold theft case. The accused are under SIT probe for alleged misappropriation of temple gold.
Today, On 5th December, CJI Surya Kant remarked that Temple Funds Are Deity’s Property, Not Permitted for Cooperative Bank Rescue. While hearing Kerala cooperative banks’ petitions on returning Thirunelly Temple deposits, the Supreme Court questioned the challenge against the High Court order, reaffirming deity’s ownership.
