According to him, Bohora was shifted to the isolation ward after he reported positive for Coronavirus. Bohora was arrested on charges of raping and killing a girl in the month of Ashoj.

He was remanded in custody by the district court for trial. But due to his age, Bohora was kept in a juvenile detention center. According to the police Bohara previously raped a 14-year-old girl of the same village before raping and killing the 12-year-old.
