"None of the staff were shown any remnants of cash or currency that may have been present on site," he explained.

Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police has reportedly informed the DHC CJ that, according to the security guard posted at Justice Varma's residence, some debris and partially burned items were removed early on the morning of March 15.

Justice Varma responded with firm defiance, rejecting any insinuation of wrongdoing. When presented with a video of the incident by the DHC CJ, he expressed deep apprehension, hinting at a potential conspiracy targeting his reputation.

The Supreme Court has released a comprehensive report, and Delhi High Court Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyay has called for a deeper investigation into the recent incident. In his reply, Justice Yashwant Varma firmly stated that neither he, his daughter, nor his household staff were ever shown sacks of burnt cash allegedly found on site.

Justice Varma also expressed his disappointment with the media, asserting that proper inquiry should have been conducted before spreading defamatory claims that tarnished his reputation. (ANI)
