Elvish Yadav, along with five others, faced charges under the Wildlife (Protection) Act and Section 120A of the Indian Penal Code for allegedly supplying snake venom for a party in Noida’s Sector 51, revealed in a sting operation by People for Animals, led by Maneka Gandhi.
A forensic investigation confirmed the presence of cobra and krait venom in samples seized from the party, where nine snakes were discovered, all with their venom glands removed and eight with missing teeth.
Elvish Yadav’s involvement stemmed from his alleged assistance in procuring snake venom, based on information from a People for Animals sting operation targeting illegal wildlife trade networks.
Despite multiple rounds of questioning, Elvish denied all allegations. The rave party incident occurred on November 3, 2023, but Elvish was not present at the event.
