I am reading about data reduction of Casella book. There is a theorem establishing the next:
If a minimal sufficient statistic exists, then any complete statistic is also a minimal sufficient statistic.
A proof is no provided by the author; is there a reference for a formal proof of this fact?
Any kind of help is thanked in advanced.
It is called Bahadur's theorem.
A version of it is proved here as Theorem 12.
I could not find a version where sufficiency of the statistic is not a requirement from the premise.
