Did not flee, have faith on judiciary: Mallya

11 March, New Delhi

A day after the issue of his leaving India rocked the Parliament, the high profile businessman Vijay Mallya today clarified in a series of tweets that he has not left the country and would fully comply with the law of the land as he has faith on judiciary.

Mallya pointed out that as an International businessman he has to travel to and fro from India and slammed a TV channel for constantly projecting him as an absconder.
“I am an international businessman. I travel to and from India frequently. I did not flee from India and neither am I an absconder. Rubbish,” he tweeted.

In another tweet the liquor baron said, ” Let media bosses not forget help, favours, accommodation that I have provided over several years which are documented. Now lies to gain TRP ?”.

Responding to the cry for disclosure of his assets he said that it was all in public domain.”News reports that I must declare my assets. Does that mean that Banks did not know my assets or look at my Parliamentary disclosures ?,” Mr Mallya tweeted.

“The editor of Times Now needs to be in prison clothes and eat prison food for libel, deceit, slander and absolutely sensational lies” he said.
