Former Union Telecom Minister Dayanidhi Maran today said the CBI court discharging him, his brother and media baron Kalanithi Maran and his wife Kaveri Kalanidhi in the Aircel-Maxis cases of the agency and ED has reinforced their faith in the judiciary.
"The case filed on me (by CBI) was on no grounds. Though this case was politically motivated, I resigned my (Minister) post and stated that I will prove my innocence. I have never abused my powers. The judgement reinforces our faith on judiciary", he said.
"I faced all the troubles over the last six years that were done to meunder the name of investigation. Discharging us from the case is a result of being honest. Truth has won," he said in a statement.
