Matthew 27 : 64 (MKJV)

Then command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night and steal him away and say to the people, He has risen from the dead. So the last error will be worse than the first.

And going they made the tomb secure, sealing the stone along with the guard.
