Several other accounts, including @Jesvinquotes made the same claim after sharing the image of the two in a twitter post. The same image once again became viral in 2020. The archive can be read from above.
The post was made on Facebook on Oct 16, 2020. It was claimed that the 80-year old man Ghulam Hassan was said to die of a heart attack but an autopsy revealed that he died because of forced sex with daughter-in-law Naheed seven times in a row.
What is the Actual Truth About this Incident? : Fact
The truth is these allegations are false and have no basis in reality. Both photos are unconfirmed and the woman’s image has been on the internet since at least 2012 while the man’s image is available on stock image platforms & other websites. Similar false allegations were made in 2020 as shown above.
We visited dreamstime and found out the image of the man with the caption “Man in Traditional attire in Indian Village”. On the other hand, the image of the young girl was found on Facebook, which was uploaded on Oct 28, 2012.
