The Delhi Police on Monday arrested two shooters involved in the firing incident at YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT winner Elvish Yadav’s house in Sector 57 of Gurugram on August 17.
The arrested shooters were identified as Gaurav and Aditya, both linked to the notorious Himanshu Bhau gang, popularly known as ‘Bhau gang’.
The accused were arrested from the Shahabad Dairy area after a swift operation.
Earlier, the police arrested a rider of a bike-taxi service, the second arrest in connection with the case.
The accused, Jatin (24), was arrested from Faridabad’s Parvatiya colony and was involved in planning and providing the motorcycle used in executing the firing.
During interrogation, Jatin revealed that he had been ferrying passengers on bikes for an app-based service in Gurugram for the last two months.

Three bike-borne attackers sprayed over two dozen rounds outside Yadav’s Gurugram residence.
Yadav was not at home when the incident took place around 5.30 am.
