There were reports in the media that the CISF officer in question was penalized for breaking the protocol and speaking to media organisations about Salman's incident. It was reported that the organization has seized his mobile phone to make sure that he doesn't speak to the media about this incident in the future. However, the CISF has now rubbished these reports and called them 'incorrect and without factual basis.'

For the uninitiated, last week, a video had surfaced on social media in which a CISF officer is seen standing in front of Salman and gesturing him to get a clearance from the security check point before entering the airport terminal. The actor was heading to Russia to resume shooting for his upcoming film Tiger 3. The video went viral on social media in no time and netizens lauded the CISF officer for carrying out his duty.
