The Supreme Court Collegium has decided that Justice Yashwant Verma will be transferred - from the Delhi High Court back to Allahabad. Sources told NDTV the decision was made after a large amount of unaccounted cash was found in his official bungalow in Delhi last week, during Holi vacations.
The money was discovered after a fire broke out in the building and family members of the judge - who was not in the city at the time - called emergency services, who then called the police.
On being informed of the matter as it travelled up through official channels, the Collegium, headed by Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna decided to transfer Justice Verma.
