Chennai-based entrepreneur Prawin Ganeshan claimed airport shed officer Tirupathi Rao blocked a shipment demanding ₹1.5-lakh bribe for a previous shipment. Ganeshan said he'd paid over ₹3-lakh bribe for previous shipment to another officer named Yuvaraj in May, following which Rao also sought 50% of that bribe amount. CBIC responded saying shipments had misdeclared quantity but were later cleared.
