The Supreme Court on Monday questioned Justice Yashwant Varma over his plea to invalidate an in-house inquiry panel report indicting him over the discovery of a huge cache of burnt cash from his official residence during his tenure as a Delhi High Court judge, reported news agency PTI.
"Why did you appear before the inquiry committee? Did you come to the court to request that the video be removed? Why did you wait for the inquiry to be completed and the report to be released? Did you take a chance of a favourable order there first," a bench of Justices Dipankar Datta and A G Masih asked senior advocate Kapil Sibal, who was representing Justice Varma, reported PTI.
