"Almost a decade of government's false and baseless accusations on me! They cannot prove anything without proof n there is nothing there to prove," said Vadra. "I will always be used for political gains, I know ... But I will walk with my head held high as in time and with the truth, which will conquer incorrect perceptions, created! about me," he added.
