SABARIMALA: The Special Investigation Team (SIT) has seized the Travancore Devasom Board’s minutes book from 2019, which contained the decision to hand over the gold sheets and plating materials to now-arrested Unnikrishnan Potti.
The seizure has become a key turning point in the ongoing probe into the alleged misappropriation of gold used for plating the Sabarimala temple’s sacred structures.
In a report submitted to the Kerala High Court, the SIT said that members and employees of the Devasom Board had acted on behalf of certain individuals, and that manipulation was evident from the official records themselves.
