Three people, including a priest, were killed by unidentified men inside a temple in Rajasthan's Pali district, the police said today.

The incident came to light when devotees reached the temple this morning to offer prayers and found priest Ballu Ram (20), Dhalla Ram (58) and Kapura Ram (40) dead, they said.

After a preliminary investigation, the police said the accused had come to loot the temple last night.
