Kiran Bora was arrested in connection with allegations against his brother, suspended ACS officer Debeshwar Bora, who is accused of collecting money through extortion and keeping the proceeds in his brother's custody.

The case involves allegations of a multi-crore job-for-cash scam, criminal misconduct and the impersonation of senior government officials. According to the allegations, Bora duped people by impersonating ministers and senior bureaucrats over telephone calls.

Investigators are examining allegations that Debeshwar Bora used mimicry artists to impersonate the Chief Minister and other senior government officials over the phone.
