On the occasion of the 73rd Independence Day, India regained the possession of two priceless artefacts dating back centuries, reports The Hindu.


Smuggler Subhas Kapoor who has been charged by the Homeland Security Investigation (HSI) of the US is linked with the theft of the artefacts. He is lodged in Tiruchchirappalli prison in Tamil Nadu, facing criminal charges for running an international smuggling racket that is responsible for the theft of idols and artefacts from the temples in Tamil Nadu.
