The Haryana Story brings you the latest update on a shocking case involving two popular internet personalities. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has taken significant action against YouTuber Elvish Yadav and singer Fazilpuria, seizing their properties in Uttar Pradesh and Haryana. This move is part of an ongoing investigation into money laundering connected to the illegal trade of snake venom.

Elvish Yadav, known for winning Bigg Boss OTT-2, and Fazilpuria, a well-known Haryanvi singer, have found themselves at the center of this controversy. The ED's action comes under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), following a First Information Report (FIR) and charge sheet filed by the Gautam Buddha Nagar (Noida) district police in Uttar Pradesh.

The case took a serious turn when the ED registered charges under the PMLA in May, after taking cognizance of the police reports against Elvish and his associates. The investigation has revealed possible links between the social media stars and the illegal trade of snake venom, often used in rave parties. 

Earlier, the ED had conducted extensive questioning of both Elvish and Fazilpuria. Elvish was interrogated for about 8 hours on September 5, following two rounds of questioning in August. Fazilpuria was also questioned at length on July 8. These interrogations were aimed at uncovering details about their income sources and potential involvement in illegal activities.

The case has raised eyebrows in the entertainment industry and among fans. It highlights the potential dark side of internet fame and the responsibilities that come with it. The Haryana Story will continue to follow this case closely, bringing you updates as they unfold. As the investigation progresses, it may have far-reaching implications for the social media and entertainment industry in India.
