India, March 24 -- The Supreme Court collegium on Monday issued a resolution to repatriate Delhi High Court judge Yashwant Varma to Allahabad High Court following the discovery of unaccounted cash at his official residence.

The money was discovered after a fire broke out at Justice Varma's official residence on Tughlak Road at around 11:35pm on March 14.

First responders-including personnel from DFS and possibly the police-are believed to have discovered stacks of cash in the storeroom, some of which were reportedly charred. Justice Varma and his wife were in Bhopal at the time.
