A senior officer said Elvish was not cooperating with the police and wasting their time by seeking more days to join the probe. If he does not join the investigation even for the third time on March 18, then further action wouldbe taken as per law.
“The first day when he reached the police station, he did not cooperate with us and refrained from revealing the name of his associates. Now, he has again asked for more time and will join the investigation on March 18. He will have to join the probe,” said Sector 53 police station SHO Inspector Rajender Kumar.
In a video that went viral on March 8, Elvish was seen beating Sagar. In his complaint, Sagar had accused Elvish of threatening to kill him.
