Vijay Madduri, who has been accused of testing positive for cocaine during a raid at the farmhouse of Raj Pakala, the brother-in-law of BRS leader K.T. Rama Rao, released a video statement late Sunday night, claiming that the statements attributed to him in the FIR are false.

Madduri emphasized that he is a U.S. citizen engaged in legal business activities. He is the CEO of Pakala’s ETG Software and also manages the software company Fusion Aix.

In his statement to the media, Madduri remarked, “Many rumors are being circulated about me. I have traveled to foreign countries and recently returned, and I can provide proof of this. I have not used any illegal substances.”

He explained that he attended a family gathering at his friend Raj Pakala's home with his family, which included women and children of various ages. He asserted that no unlawful activities took place during the gathering and dismissed the police allegations as unfounded.

Madduri expressed concern about the impact of the police statements on his family, stating, “This is unjust. I have had a flawless career spanning 25 years.”
