Popular Youtuber and Bigg Boss OTT 2 winner Elvish Yadav has been arrested in the Snake Venom case. He is in judicial custody for 14 days, starting today. Noida DCP Vidya Sagar Mishra, who handled the case closely, answered questions raised by the media on Sunday afternoon regarding the case. That is where he said that Elvish was not co-operating during the interrogation, and hid some information.

What he said

During the interrogation, Mishra, according to a PTI and ANI report, said, “Elvish Yadav was called for questioning today in a case pertaining to the Wildlife Protection Act. It was found that he was hiding information during the interrogation.”

Elvish’s statement when accused in the case

When his name was first involved in the Snake Venom case, Elvish, who lives in Gurugram, Haryana, pleaded not guilty and through a video, he told the cops that he would co-operate in the investigations. Unfortunately, according to the DCP, that did not happen during the interrogation, for Elvish kept some information hidden. The DCP did not reveal more details on the information that was left hidden.

Elvish’s arrest

An FIR was filed against six people with Noida sector 49, Uttar Pradesh police station on November 3. This is after snake venom was consumed at a party in Noida. Elvish was among the six names that People For Animals (PFA) named in the FIR. The YouTuber is the last to be arrested in the case. The other five were arrested and are out on bail. The case shifted from sector 49 to sector 20. Elvish was arrested in lieu of Wildlife Protection Act, 1972 and for criminal conspiracy under IPC 120B. He claimed he was not at the party. The PFA chairperson and BJP leader Maneka Gandhi accused the Youtuber of illegally selling snake venom.
