The theft took place less than Two Weeks before an annual Mass celebrating the " Precious blood" relic that dates back to the Middle Ages .
" A couple of days later, at 10:30 in the evening, the doorbell rang. I looked from my balcony outside and in The Dark I saw a box. I ran down The Stairs , afraid that someone would take The Box . Outside I looked around, but there was no-one there, " said Mr Brand.
As a Catholic himself, He Said he could not believe The Beauty of the relics, describing The Moment he opened The Box containing them as an " authentic, religious experience".
