Gangster Himanshu Bhau ‘claims role' in firing outside YouTuber Elvish Yadav's Gurugram home
Three men on motorcycle, the Gurugram police PRO said, had carried out the firing that targeted the ground and the first floor of the building. Elvish wasn't present in the house when the firing took place between 5.30 am and 6 am, the police said, adding that no one was injured in the firing. New Delhi: Firing took place outside the house of YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT winner Elvish Yadav in an upscale Gurugram locality in Sector 56 on Sunday morning. After the incident, a post surfaced on Instagram where the notorious Himanshu Bhau gang took responsibility for the firing. In this social media post, the gang accused Yadav of promoting gambling. 'Today, the firing that took place at Elvis Yadav's house was done by Neeraj Faridpur and Bhau Ritoliya. Today we have given him our introduction. He has ruined many homes by promoting betting through his status. So, to all these social media worms, here's a warning: whoever promotes betting can get a call or a bullet anytime. So, all those involved in betting should stay ready,' the post read. ThePrint couldn't independently identify the authenticity of the post. The police are scanning the CCTV footage and further investigation is on. The Sunday's incident comes after a firing incident that took place in Haryanvi singer and rapper Rahul Yadav's car last month. While Yadav alias Fazilpuria was unhurt, his associate Rohit Shaukeen was killed in Gurugram. This murder, too, was claimed by gangster Sunil Sardhania of the Himanshu Bhau gang. Believed to be an associate of jailed gangster Neeraj Bawana, fugitive gangster Himanshu Bhau faces over 30 cases of murder, attempted murder, extortion among others. He is said to have escaped from a juvenile correctional facility at just 17 and not looked back so far. He is suspected to be in the US from where he's running the gang operations. His gang has been responsible for several sensational hit cases, including one at Delhi's Rajouri garden's Burger King last year. The Interpol had issued a red notice against him as well. Jailed gangster Ankit Baba, a native of Haryana's Ritoliya like Bhau, is his arch rival. The Bhau gang is believed to be an ally of the Bambiha gang, which is the Bishnoi gang's arch rival. Following Sunday's firing incident, Elvish's father Ramavtar Yadav in an FIR has said that the attackers had fired indiscriminately at their house. 'This attack has been made on our family. If we had been outside at that time, we would have lost our lives,' the FIR reads, adding that the police must ensure their safety.
