Temple Bell Theft in Hathras Sparks Police Probe

A theft at a Hanuman temple in Hathras, Uttar Pradesh, has prompted a police investigation after more than two dozen brass bells were stolen from a shrine located opposite a local police outpost. Authorities are examining the scene, searching for suspects, and reviewing security concerns raised by the incident.

Authorities in Uttar Pradesh’s Hathras district have launched an investigation after more than two dozen brass bells were reported stolen from a Hanuman temple situated directly opposite a local police outpost in the Sasani police station area. The incident came to light when the temple priest alerted officers early Monday, informing them that the bells—fixed along the temple premises—had disappeared overnight.

Police teams reached the site shortly after receiving the complaint and began inspecting the area for evidence. Officers said a search for the unidentified suspects is underway, and nearby locations are being examined for possible clues or surveillance footage that could help trace the culprits. The unusual proximity of the temple to a police post has drawn attention, prompting officials to review how the theft occurred despite the area’s constant activity.

The case has unsettled local residents, who frequent the temple daily and expressed concern over security lapses surrounding religious structures. As the investigation progresses, police have assured the community that efforts are being intensified to identify those responsible and recover the stolen items.

The incident underscores ongoing challenges related to temple security in smaller towns and highlights the need for improved vigilance even in areas presumed to be under close watch.
