Never heard of proton mail, Guardian interview fake: Mallya
Liquor baron Vijay Mallya, who left India in the first week of March even as a probe was being activated against him for defaulting on a massive loan of more than Rs 9000 crore, on Tuesday distanced himself from reported interview given to an English newspaper The Sunday Guardian, which quoted him as having said that the time was not \"right\" for him to return to India.

Sunday Guardian's claim that I wrote to them from my so called protonmail account to the reporters protonmail account is a total fake.

Never ever had nor do I have a protonmail e-mail account. As I said earlier I have never ever heard of protonmail.

Shocked to see Sunday Guardian's claim that I exchanged mails with them from my protonmail account. Have never heard of protonmail before.

"The Sunday Guardian stands by its interview of Mr Vijay Mallya. This was given to the newspaper on 12 March 2016. Mr. Mallya personally responded to our email questionnaire from his encrypted email id: vjmallya@protonmail.com.
This id was confirmed to us by his legal counsel's office on 8 March. To a questionnaire sent to Mr Mallya on 10 March, he replied via email on 12 March," the newspaper website said.
"For reasons that are not clear, Mr Mallya has sought to distance himself from the interview. We, however, stand by our report. The email trail is attached," it added.
The Enforcement Directorate ( ED) has summoned the liquor baron to appear before it in Mumbai on March 18 as part of its money laundering probe in the alleged default in payment of Rs 900 crore dues to IDBI bank by Kingfisher Airlines.
