The Special Investigation Team (SIT) assigned to investigate the alleged embezzlement of donations intended for the Ram temple has arrived on-site to intensify its probe. With a 15-day extension authorized, the objective is to broaden the scope of this comprehensive inquiry.

Efforts are being made to scrutinize every angle to ensure that no culpable individual is left unaccounted for. Actively involved in this investigation, the Uttar Pradesh Police enhanced their efforts on Friday, particularly focusing on Avinash Shukla, a key suspect now being interrogated by the Special Operations Group (SOG) in Ayodhya.

Ayodhya's Circle Officer Ashutosh Tiwari, along with several officials, partakes in this crucial interrogation. Shukla was produced in court and subsequently remanded for 24 hours. Earlier actions included visits to Shukla's residence for evidence collection, with the wider controversy dating back to an FIR lodged on June 25 over alleged misappropriations from the temple donations.
