Elvish Yadav, a popular YouTuber and winner of Bigg Boss OTT 2, is in trouble. The police raided his house in Noida and found five live cobras and banned snake poison. They say that Yadav was hosting rave parties with foreign nationals and supplying poisonous snakes and venom for these parties.
In this case, an FIR was lodged under the provisions of the Wildlife (Protection) Act and for criminal conspiracy following a complaint by PFA against six people, including Elvish Yadav, for partying at a banquet hall in Sector 51 where snake venom was made available, police said.
However, Elvish has responded to the controversy by releasing a statement, explaining that the viral image of him holding a snake is actually a still shot from a music video.
