[Note: no sound]

This is the test-of-faith moment a woman crosses herself in a Russian Orthodox church in Moscow and then stuffs a priceless religious icon under her coat.

The woman, who has not been named by police, was caught on CCTV security footage as she repeatedly crossed herself in front of the altar at the Church of St Sergius of Radonezh.

Then, as she looked around to check the coast was clear, she snatched up the icon of St Gabriel from a display case and slipped it under her coat.

She later confessed to the police she had taken the icon hoping she could sell it to get medical treatment for her sick husband.
