Shocking Twist: Elvish Yadav and Fazilpuriya’s Assets Seized by ED in Explosive Money Laundering Scandal!
In a fresh legal entanglement, YouTuber Siddharth Yadav, known as Elvish Yadav, and singer Rahul Yadav, alias Fazilpuriya, face asset attachment by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) as part of an ongoing money laundering probe. The ED’s Lucknow Zonal Office provisionally attached properties under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002, related to the ‘Wildlife case.’ The attached assets include agricultural land in Bijnor District, Uttar Pradesh, and bank balances belonging to Elvish Yadav, Fazilpuriya, and M/s Sky Digital India Pvt. Ltd.
Rahul Yadav, a singer from Haryana alleged to be linked with Elvish Yadav, was questioned by the ED concerning the case. The central agency initiated the case in May following an FIR and charge sheet from the Gautam Buddh Nagar (Noida) district police. The police investigation revealed that Elvish Yadav and others were involved in cruelty against wildlife by illegally using snakes in music videos and vlogs.
The ED identified the proceeds of the crime and has attached both movable and immovable properties. Elvish Yadav was arrested on March 17 by the Noida police for suspected use of snake venom as a recreational drug, and his parties were allegedly involved in these activities. The controversial YouTuber, and winner of the reality show Bigg Boss OTT 2, has been charged under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, Wildlife Protection Act, and the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
The FIR, lodged at Noida’s Sector 49 police station on November 3 last year by a representative of the animal rights NGO People for Animals (PFA), named Yadav among six individuals. The investigation is ongoing, and further legal actions are anticipated.
