SC rejects plea for probe against former judge Yashwant Varma
The Supreme Court has turned down a petition that demanded an FIR and the formation of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate former Allahabad High Court judge Justice Yashwant Varma regarding the "cash-at-home" controversy. The court stated, "This is cheap publicity...We're not going to entertain it...Sorry." Justice Varma had stepped down from his position in April while facing impeachment proceedings, following claims that burnt currency was discovered at his home in Delhi.
