How YouTuber Elvish Yadav arrested in snake venom case

YouTuber Elvish Yadav Arrested

Elvish Yadav, the winner of Big Boss OTT, who gained popularity for his humorous videos, is back in the headlines. In relation to the snake poison case, Noida police on Sunday detained the controversial social media personality. For having snake venom at a party, the YouTuber was arrested in 2023 and placed under police detention. When Elvish was brought in for questioning on claims that he used and supplied snake venom at rave parties, things took an unexpected turn.

Yadav was one of five individuals detained by the police last year for having snake venom. Following a complaint filed by People For Animals (PFA), an animal rights organisation, the police searched a banquet venue in Sector 51. The complainant alleged that the YouTuber provided snake venom and set up parties for foreigners. Nine poisonous snakes were saved. Yadav claimed that the singer Fazilpuria had brought the snakes when he was arrested.

A Sting Operation

The sting operation, led by Maneka Gandhi of People for species, sought to reveal the mistreatment of endangered species and resulted in the arrest. It was said that Elvish had made it easier to get snake venom for a party that took place in Sector 51 in Noida. Samples taken during the investigation confirmed that cobra and krait species of snake venom was utilized at the party.

Even after being questioned several times, Elvish firmly denied being involved in the alleged misconduct. But the evidence used against him resulted in his detention and 14 days of judicial incarceration.

When it was discovered that nine snakes, discovered at the party location, had had their venom glands removed and that eight of them were missing teeth, the case took a dire turn. This finding sparked worries regarding the exploitation of wildlife for illicit purposes and illegal trafficking.

Elvish's arrest caused a stir on social media even while his involvement in the rave party and his purported involvement in the purchase of snake venom were being looked into. The uproar surrounding his role grew after a video that appeared to show his arrest went viral.

Elvish's arrest serves as a reminder of the value of protecting wildlife and the necessity of taking tough measures against illicit activities that harm endangered species while the judicial process plays out. It also emphasizes how important it is for social media influencers to uphold moral principles in their behaviour and provide a good example for their followers.

The Accusations and Denials of Elvish Yadav

Elvish Yadav firmly denied any involvement in the case, even after being questioned by the authorities. The accusations made against him, according to him, are "baseless, fake, and not even 1 percent true." Even though the police admitted that Elvish wasn't at the party hall when the raid took place, they were still looking into his involvement.

Meanwhile, Elvish Yadav was charged with involvement in the crime by Maneka Gandhi, who expressed concern over the purported illicit sale of snake venom. She underlined how serious the situation was and called for his immediate arrest. The charges against Elvish have spurred a discussion on wildlife conservation and the moral obligations of powerful public figures, even if he is still firm in his denial.
