I have been a professional freestyle wrestler for over 15 years and I have undergone almost 25-30 dope tests. I have come out clean every single time and never have any of my samples returned positive results.

I have undergone three tests in the last month and a half. I appeared for a dope test on June 2 before leaving for a training camp in Bulgaria.
I was tested on my return on June 25 and again on July 5. I believe there is foul play involved in this entire episode.
Someone has sabotaged my food supplements and water intake.
I take pride in the fact that I have competed in every competition, international and domestic, in an honest, fair and transparent manner and I will continue to do so. I am a responsible athlete with an understanding of the country&rsquo;s expectations and hopes on me.
I would never dream of betraying that hope.
