Officials confirmed that unidentified attackers opened fire at the Gurugram residence of YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT 2 winner Elvish Yadav in the early hours of Sunday. As reported by India Today, the shooting took place between 5 am and 6 am, when three men on motorcycles allegedly fired multiple rounds before quickly fleeing the spot. Over two dozen bullets were discharged during the assault, according to initial findings.
Caretaker Present, Yadav Absent During Attack
Citing sources, India Today stated that Yadav himself was not at home during the time of the attack. The only person inside the premises was the caretaker, who fortunately remained unharmed. Authorities added that, as of now, Yadav has not lodged an official complaint regarding the firing incident.
Ongoing Controversies Surrounding Yadav
This development comes at a time when Yadav has been embroiled in legal controversies. In November 2023, his name surfaced in connection with an alleged snake venom procurement case. According to police reports, investigators uncovered an illegal network during a raid at a banquet hall in Noida’s Sector 51. Five individuals, including four snake charmers, were taken into custody for allegedly providing venom for parties and events.
Snake Venom Case and Forensic Findings
During the raid, authorities confiscated nine snakes, among them cobras, as well as vials of venom. Forensic examinations confirmed traces of toxins from both cobra and krait species in the seized samples. The case gained momentum after a sting operation conducted by the NGO People For Animals, which played a central role in exposing the racket.
Supreme Court’s Intervention
On August 6, the Supreme Court issued a stay on lower court proceedings in the snake venom case involving Yadav. The order temporarily halted trial hearings while the matter undergoes further judicial review.
