The mystery over the postal parcel containing 23,000 euros (Rs.3.7 million) and addressed to Bollywood glamour girl Aishwarya Rai continues, even as the actor's father Krishnara Rai was Wednesday questioned by sleuths of the Customs department.

According to sources, Rai said his daughter was away in Jaipur for a film shoot and would be returning only on Monday.

"He (Krishnara) came in connection with the replies and queries regarding the postal package containing 23,000 euros. He was very cooperative, in fact both he and Aishwarya have been very cooperative. Her gave us satisfactory answers to all our queries," Mumbai Commissioner of Customs A.K. Prasad told reporters here.
