Snake Venom Case: ‘He is innocent’ say Elvish Yadav’s parents

Elvish Yadav, the winner of Bigg Boss OTT 2 and renowned YouTuber, was arrested in the snake poison case on Sunday and subsequently remanded to 14 days of judicial custody by a local court.

A video featuring Elvish’s mother, Sushma Yadav, has surfaced on social media, wherein she is seen expressing anguish over her son’s situation and longing to see him.

Elvish Yadav’s parents have vocally proclaimed their son’s innocence and have appealed to People’s For Animals (PFA) president and BJP leader Maneka Gandhi for leniency towards the YouTuber.

In a recent development, Elvish Yadav has been moved from a quarantine cell to a high-security barrack by the authorities. The Noida Police apprehended him on March 17 in connection with the snake poison case. Last year, an FIR was lodged against him in Sector 39, leading to his interrogation. Presently, Elvish is detained in judicial custody for a fortnight.

During his initial night in jail, Elvish Yadav reportedly faced challenges similar to those encountered by other inmates. Despite his celebrity status, he received treatment akin to that of ordinary prisoners, including being provided the same food and allocated three blankets in adherence to regulations. Throughout the night, Elvish remained restless and spent most of it awake.
