Elvish Yadav Snake Venom Case: Controversial YouTuber Lands In Legal Trouble AGAIN! As ED Files Money Laundering Case
Elvish Yadav is under the Enforcement Directorate (ED) scanner as the govt body has implicated him in a money laundering investigation associated with the snake venom-rave party incident Elvish Yadav, a prominent figure in the digital world, has been making headlines for quite some time now, albeit for less than favourable reasons. Initially rising to fame as the winner of Bigg Boss OTT 2, Yadav's journey took a tumultuous turn when he found himself embroiled in controversies.

In a shocking turn of events, Yadav was accused of involvement in a case related to the use of snake venom at rave parties. This led to his arrest on March 17, following an FIR filed by BJP MP Maneka Gandhi’s NGO. Subsequently, Yadav was remanded to 14 days of judicial custody under the Wildlife Protection Act 1972, only to be granted bail later. While charges under the NDPS Act were initially imposed on him, they were later dropped.

However, Yadav's legal woes were far from over. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) slapped him with charges in connection to a money laundering case linked to the a fore mentioned snake venom-rave party incident, under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The ED is currently investigating the alleged misuse of funds for organizing such events.

In November, the Noida Police further intensified the legal battle by filing a 1200-page chargesheet against Yadav and eight others involved in the snake venom-rave party case. Throughout this ordeal, Yadav's parents, Ram Avtar Yadav and Sushma Yadav, staunchly defended their son, asserting that he was being unfairly targeted due to his popularity.




Addressing claims regarding extravagant possessions showcased in Yadav's videos, his parents clarified that these were often rented for content creation purposes. They debunked rumours of their son owning property in Dubai, affirming that his income primarily stemmed from vlogs and online merchandise sales.

Yadav's legal woes didn't stop there, as he found himself entangled in another controversy in March, this time involving an assault case with content creator Sagar Thakur, also known as Maxtern. Despite the initial turmoil, Yadav was eventually granted bail, and the issues between him and Thakur were resolved amicably.
