A woman has been arrested for allegedly stealing Rs 74,620 from the famous Saibaba shrine at Shirdi in Maharashtra.
Devotees can volunteer for various tasks in the temple including cash-counting.
Saxena had volunteered for counting the cash in the donation box Tuesday morning, said deputy superintendent of police Anand Bhoite, the chief of security at the temple.
She allegedly hid a few bundles of notes in her leggings and tried to slip out.
However, a woman security guard frisked her and recovered the money, he said.
Saxena was arrested under IPC section 379 (theft), said inspector Arvind Mane, adding that further probe was on.
