Moodbidri, June 6: Unidentified miscreants have reportedly thrown masala on the Hanumantha shrine in Kurukalikamba temple premises at Smiths lane here on Wednesday night June 4.
The miscreants have used the Hanumantha shrine that is close to Gurukalikamba temple near Jainpete for their deed. The incident came to light when the priest Rakshit came to the shrine for performing pooja at the Rakshit temple at 7.30 am on Thursday June 5.
The masala was splashed over the shrine through a small door that resembles a window. It was found on the Hanumatha idol, pooja bar and on the wall. A bag in which the masala was brought was found at the place.
Moodbidri circle inspector Anantha Padmanabha visited the place and has conducted the investigation. Prominent people connected with the temple have condemned the act.
