Big Relief for Big Boss Winner Elvish Yadav as SC Quashes Proceedings
- On March 19, 2026, the Supreme Court of India quashed the FIR and proceedings against YouTuber Elvish Yadav under the Wildlife Act.
- The court found procedural flaws when the Wildlife Act complaint was not filed by an authorised person under Section 55, and IPC offences relied on an earlier Gurugram FIR with a closure report.
- The court noted evidentiary points, observing that NDPS provisions cannot apply as the liquid anti-venom recovered from a co-accused is not a scheduled psychotropic substance, with the case registered on November 22, 2023, and Yadav arrested on March 17, 2024.
- Having stayed proceedings on August 6, 2025, the bench quashed the chargesheet but said the competent authority may still file a proper complaint under Section 55, with Justice Sundresh warning, 'We are not going to give a clean chit to this person.'
- Yadav's celebrity amplified coverage as allegations center on videos with live snakes at farmhouses in Noida and the NCR and rave parties consuming venom with foreign participants.
