Elvish Yadav, a popular YouTuber, has reported receiving an extortion threat of ₹10 crore from an individual claiming to be associated with the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang. The threat was communicated through WhatsApp messages following a missed call from an international number. Yadav filed a complaint at the Sector-56 police station in Gurgaon, leading to the registration of a First Information Report (FIR) under Sections 308(2) (extortion) and 351(2) (criminal intimidation) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). The police are currently investigating the origin of the international number and the authenticity of the threat. Yadav's father, Ram Avtar, noted that such threats are not new to their family, recalling a previous incident where masked assailants fired shots at their home in Gurgaon. This attack was claimed by the Himanshu Bhau gang, who alleged that Yadav was targeted for promoting betting platforms. In a separate incident in October 2023, Yadav faced another extortion attempt, where a RTO agent was arrested for trying to extort ₹1 crore from him, later negotiating the amount down significantly. The ongoing threats highlight the dangerous environment surrounding Yadav's public persona.
