Elvish Yadav‘s legal difficulties appear to be ongoing. The Bigg Boss OTT 2 winner has been summoned to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) several times in connection with the money laundering case, which is allegedly linked to the rave party event. According to recent sources, Yadav was again questioned by ED officers at the Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) headquarters. The comprehensive interview lasted several hours, and a video of him leaving the Lucknow ED office was also released.
According to sources, officers at the ED zonal office in Lucknow grilled Elvish Yadav for around eight hours. The YouTuber was last called by the Enforcement Directorate in July 2024 for allegedly being involved in the money laundering investigation.
According to media reports, during a recent interrogation in Lucknow, the Bigg Boss OTT 2 winner was questioned about his contacts, properties, bank accounts, and other valuables. There are also claims that during the interrogation, investigators seized his phone to review images, videos, and chat sessions.
The YouTuber is currently facing charges under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) for allegedly generating proceeds from crime and using illicit funds to organise rave or recreational parties. Elvish was arrested in March 2024, but a local court granted him bail five days later.

The Noida Police charged Elvish Yadav with violating numerous sections of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, the Wildlife Protection Act, and the Indian Penal Code (IPC). An FIR was filed against six people, including Elvish, in November of last year, and the case has been under investigation since then. According to the FIR, the Bigg Boss OTT 2 star and the other five individuals allegedly provided snake venom at a rave party in Noida.
