Burnt pieces of currency notes were found amid fallen leaves and waste near the residence of Delhi high court judge, Justice Yashwant Varma, who is facing a probe over cash allegedly recovered from his residence, officials said on Sunday.

NEW DELHI:

Sanitation workers clearing the waste from the street along the judge's residence said that a couple of burnt pieces of currency notes had been detected over the past 4-5 days during clearing. The New Delhi Municipal Council did not respond to queries about these burnt currency notes and whether they had been deposited with the police.

An official on condition of anonymity said that the sanitation workers are hired by a private concessionaire.

"During this season, large-scale shedding of leaves occurs in this area and workers are deployed to clear the streets. A few notes were detected a few days back," the official added.
