Most Devotional Thief Ever: Man Apologises Before Stealing Goddess Durga's Crown From Temple
We have seen a clumsy thief who tried to steal phones and ended up making an entire display shelf fall on himself; we have also seen a thief apologising to a boy in an email, after stealing his laptop. But, this thief takes the cake on all accounts. In fact, he might just be the most god-fearing and devout thief ever.
Recently, a thief prayed to Goddess Durga before stealing the idol¡¯s crown from a temple in Hyderabad. The video of the incident has been going viral on social media, where the thief is seen entering the temple after removing his footwear. He then offers prayers to the goddess, by folding his hands and going around the idol.

After touching the idol¡¯s feet, he touches his ears and bows down to say sorry. He even applies tilak on his forehead. After ensuring that nobody is around, the man steals the crown and joins his hands again. Before leaving, he turns around to hide the crown inside his clothes.
The video of the incident was shared on Twitter with the caption, ¡®A crown of Durga mata was stolen from the temple. Interesting to see how the thief apologizes first to the mata, prays and then steals the crown.¡¯
