Sigh of relief for Big B and his family after getting clearance from the Bofors scam

Mumbai -- Getting a clean chit in the Bofors scam after twenty five years, actor Amitabh Bachchan was relieved yesterday. All these years he had to live with humiliation and loss of reputation but now was glad when the truth was revealed. He also wished that his father late Harivanshrai Bachchan had lived to see the development in this case. From the very day we have maintained that we were innocent, for 25 years my as well as my familys name bore the brunt of the scandal of which I was never a part of, he said. Post the Bofors Scam clearance, the actor wrote on his blog, "I read today from one that pioneered accusation and investigation, of innocence". No one shall be able to understand or even remotely fathom, the hours and days and months and years of the anguish of petulant blame that I had to go through. But will it really interest another? No it shall not, he wrote. This scandal also revealed the then Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhis involvement, but Swedish investigator Sten Lindstrom now told that Gandhi wasnt bribed.
