The CBI has filed a fresh case against former GAIL director E S Ranganathan for allegedly amassing assets worth more than Rs 4.82 crore, disproportionate to his known sources of income, during 2017-22, officials said on Monday.
Ranganathan, the then director (marketing) at the Gas Authority of India Limited (GAIL), was arrested in January last year in a case of alleged bribery of over Rs 50 lakh for giving discounts to private companies buying petrochemical products marketed by the Maharatna PSU, they said.
The CBI had conducted searches at the Noida residence of Ranganathan, from where it found details of over Rs 1.29 crore cash and documents containing details of assets that the agency was scrutinising.
