He also admitted to being arrested seven times, but said that he has never been convicted. Calling it “the most devastating trauma,” Rahul said he never let his emotional struggle show but was constantly battling its effects internally. “I was the one who suffered the most… my identity was butchered… my character was assassinated… for what, for nothing. I didn’t do anything… and if I had, I have enough courage to accept my crime and go to the gallows… I’m a man, I’d have taken it on the chin… but I didn’t do anything, and still I was …
