Claim

On the 5th of June, trust representatives accompanied by police reached an accused's residence and recovered nearly Rs 58 lakh.

“ऑन 5th ऑफ जून ट्रस्ट रिप्रेजेंटेटिव्स अकंपनीड बाय पुलिस रीच्ड एन अक्यूज्ड रेजिडेंस एंड रिकवर्ड नियरली 58 लाख रूपीस”

Rationale

The event framing is accurate: on June 5, 2026, police accompanied by persons associated with the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust reached the Ayodhya residence (a yoga centre) of accused Avinash Shukla and recovered cash. However, the amount is wrong: the June 5 recovery was reported as roughly Rs 5–20 lakh, and the total recovered from Shukla across the entire probe was Rs 20.39 lakh; combined recovery from all accused was about Rs 70–80 lakh. No source supports a 'nearly Rs 58 lakh' figure for that date or any single recovery, so the quantitative core of the claim is unsupported.
