UP Police had busted a snake smuggling racket in November last year, arresting five people, including four snake charmers, for supplying snake venom. Later, forensic investigation revealed the use of poison of cobra and krait species in the seized samples.
The police action came after a complaint by Maneka Gandhi’s NGO People for Animals. Actually, a member of the NGO conducted a sting operation and contacted Elvish for snake venom. Although, at that time, Elvish had denied all the allegations, but during the ongoing investigation, the police found a video of Elvish with two snakes, after which the case gained momentum.
Ultimately, Elvish was called for questioning in the case, where he confessed to his crime and the court sent him to judicial custody for 14 days.
