A huge pile of cash was found at the house of Delhi High Court judge Yashwant Varma
New Delhi:
The transfer of Delhi High Court judge Yashwant Varma is not linked to the alleged recovery of a large stash of cash at his home, the Supreme Court said today. It said the in-house investigation is being done as per the procedure prescribed by the Supreme Court, and the transfer has nothing to do with the investigation.
The Supreme Court flagged “misinformation and rumours” as the reasons why Justice Varma’s transfer to Allahabad High Court was linked to the cash recovery.
“There is misinformation and rumours being spread with regard to the incident at the residence of Justice Yashwant Varma… On receiving the information, the Chief Justice of the Delhi High Court commenced the in-house enquiry procedure collecting evidence and information,” the Supreme Court said in a press note.
