New Delhi, Aug 22: Faridabad Crime Branch team on Friday arrested one of the three criminals who fired indiscriminately at the house of controversial YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT winner Elvish Yadav in Gurugram last week.

The accused, Ishant Gandhi, was arrested following an encounter. Ishant with bullet shot in his leg is reportedly undergoing treatment at a nearby hospital.

According to reports, Ishant fired over half-a-dozen rounds at the Faridabad Crime Branch team with an automatic pistol, forcing the police to fire back at him in retaliation.

Ishant was shot in the leg by the cops and subsequently arrested.

According to police, Ishant Gandhi is a resident of Jawahar Colony in Faridabad, and the police are interrogating him to find out about the other men who accompanied him during the shooting, and to determine which criminal syndicate the three shooters belong to.

On August 17, three masked men fired at least 25 bullets at Elvish Yadav’s house in Gurugram located in Sector 56.

Though Elvish Yadav was not at home at the time of the shooting incident, his family members and caretaker were in the house at that time.

According to the police Elvish Yadav had gone outside Haryana for some work and fortunately, no one from his family or staff were injured in the firing.

Hours after the shooting the notorious Himanshu Bhau gang had taken responsibility for the firing in a post on social media.

The gang had accused Elvish Yadav of promoting gambling and running many families.
