It was reported by Ahalkar, a resident of the village, that he visited the mosque Monday morning at approximately 5 am and found the Quran lying near the entrance gate.

I contacted other members of the mosque and we placed the holy Quran at the designated location. We then informed the other villagers as well as the police,” Ahalkar explained.
