What is the Actual Truth About this Incident? : Fact
The truth is that these assertions are fake and unfounded. This is an old video from Brussels, where in January 2022, a French man by the name of Benjamin P. forced a woman onto the railway tracks at a metro station. The incident has nothing to do with religion, and the video is old.
We visited Times of India, which published an article on this incident on Jan 16, 2022 with the headline “Shocking: Woman pushed under wheels of subway train in Brussels”. Another article by HLN was published on Nov 15, 2022 with the headline ” Frenchman who pushed woman onto the tracks in the Brussels metro has been interned”. This article clarified that Benjamin P. , who is a 24-years old, is the man who pushed a woman onto the Brussels metro tracks in January, has been interned by the Brussels council chamber. Another post by HUMO explained the incident in details, which was posted with the headline “What inspired Benjamin P. and Simon M. to throw a woman onto the railway?”.
