Three people have been arrested for impersonating Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s son Jay Shah in a fake call scam that targeted MLAs in Manipur, sources said.<\/p>\n

The three accused were brought from Delhi to Manipur’s capital Imphal this morning, sources said.<\/p>\n

The calls were made in the first two weeks of February.<\/p>\n

During the same period, a 19-year-old man who allegedly impersonated Jay Shah and sought Rs 5 lakh from Uttarakhand BJP MLA Adesh Chauhan was arrested.<\/p>\n
