Himanshu Bhau Gang Claims Attack
A social media post has surfaced claiming responsibility for the firing outside the YouTuber’s Gurugram home early Sunday morning.
The post alleged that fugitive gangsters Himanshu Bhau and Neeraj Faridpuria, said to be operating from abroad, were behind the attack.
The Instagram message, accompanied by an image of two guns and the caption “BHAU GANG SINCE 2020″, linked the incident to Yadav’s alleged promotion of illegal betting applications.
Himanshu Bhau, reportedly based in Portugal, is believed to lead the gang.
“Greetings to all. Today, a shooting took place at ELVISH YADAV’s house. It was carried out by NEERAJ FARIDPUR and BHAU RITOLIYA. Today we have made our presence known. He has destroyed a lot of homes by promoting illegal betting apps. It is a warning to all such insects on social media, like Elvish Yadav. Whoever promotes these apps, be aware, a call or a bullet could come at any time. Stay alert [sic],” the post read.
However, CNN-News18 could not independently verify the authenticity of the claim.
