As he approached the office, he was surrounded by reporters who wanted him to answer to the claims.
Elvish avoided the queries, claiming that the topic is confidential and that he does not wish to discuss it.
He stated that he will know more about it once he interacts with ED authorities. “Jo unhone maanga tha, maine submit kiya hai, ab woh batayenge.
“Main baar baar ek cheez repeat nahi kar sakta,” he told the reporters, according to videos circulated on X. He also stated that he had only been summoned once. He continued, “Apne dekha nahi tha; main UK mein tha. “Ek baar hee bulaye hai.”
Elvish Yadav was arrested by Noida Police in March of this year on charges of snake poisoning.
The charge was filed under the Wildlife Protection Act of 1972, as well as for criminal conspiracy under Section 120B of the Indian Penal Code, they stated.
Sources reported a day after Elvish’s arrest that he had admitted to his crimes. However, no official statement was issued.
A week later, Yadav was granted bail on a 50,000 bond. Last week, he appeared on Bigg Boss OTT 3 to support his friend Lovekesh Kataria, who is a competitor on this year’s controversial show.
