Maneka Gandi the BJP MP whose NGO accused the YouTube star has also issued a statement asking "If he is not guilty then why was he running?" While giving interview to TV channels Maneka Gandhi said, ."This is a grade 1 crime, seven years in jail, a wildlife crime. King cobras die when their venom is taken out. Their venom is for digesting food. Without the venom, they can't eat anything and thus they die. There are very few cobras and pythons in the country. It is a crime to own them, catch them or use them."
