Elvish Yadav, the YouTuber and winner of Bigg Boss, presented himself before the Noida police late on Tuesday night in connection with a snake venom case, as confirmed by Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Noida, Harish Chander. The case, which involved an alleged supply of snake venom at a rave party in Noida, led to an FIR being filed against six individuals, including Elvish Yadav, in Noida’s Sector 49 police station.
Earlier, Noida police had issued a notice to Elvish Yadav regarding the case. Notably, five of the accused had already been arrested by the police. The case was subsequently transferred from Sector 49 police station to Sector 20 police station on the orders of Gautam Buddha Nagar Police Commissioner Lakshmi Singh.
Speaking on the matter, Uttar Pradesh Environment Minister Arun Saxena said, “Law will take its course, and no celebrity is bigger than the law.” Similarly, Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar stated that he did not influence the case proceedings, underscoring that the police would act if Elvish Yadav were found guilty.
Elvish Yadav, in a personalised YouTube video posted on November 4, vehemently denied any involvement in the supply of snake venom at the rave party. He expressed his readiness to surrender if any evidence suggested his complicity and vehemently maintained his innocence.
