Bigg Boss OTT 2 Elvish Yadav was nabbed by Noida Police a few hours ago, and an FIR has been filed against him for allegedly supplying snake venom at rave parties. While he rejected the allegations, BJP MLA Menaka Gandhi confirmed it. If the charges are proven, the social-media influencer might have to serve a jail term of seven years, as his crime falls in the grade 1 category.
Interestingly, it seems Bigg Boss and its contestants have had a long history with legal matters, including the host Salman Khan. The superstar has served a jail sentence in Hit and Run Case and killing a Blackbuck, both of which are horrendous crimes. Though he has now overcome the period, he often shares the ordeals he faced while he was charged with these criminal records.
Bigg Boss 17 contestants Munawar Faruqui and Jigna Vora have had to share criminal records. Jigna was accused of conspiring with Chhota Rajan for journalist Jyotirmoy Dey’s murder. She had to serve a jail term during the seven years of her trial before she was acquitted of all the charges as she was falsely accused. As for Munawar, he was arrested in 2021 after an FIR was registered against him for making fun of Hindu deities. His arrest was criticized, and the Supreme Court of India granted him bail. The FIRs still exist, and all of them have now been transferred to Indore.
