Pakistan-based extremist propaganda accounts are circulating a video of a young girl in police custody with the claim that a Muslim girl cut off the private part of a Hindu man named Ramesh Yadav who attempted to deceive her by adopting a fake Muslim identity under the name Abdul Bari to pursue an affair in New Delhi, India. However, these claims are false and fabricated. According to verified and credible sources, the couple belong to the Muslim community.
Sharing the video on X (Formerly Twitter) serial fake news peddler and propagandist account @PSYWAROPS wrote, “New Delhi, India: A Muslim girl reportedly cut off the penis of a Hindu man, Ramesh Yadav, who allegedly tried to deceive her by adopting a fake Muslim identity under the name Abdul Bari to pursue an affair.”
The truth behind the claims, Fact Check
As soon as the posts containing the video and claims came to our notice. Subsequently, we conducted research and analysis of the incident and found that both the girl and boy belong to the Muslim community.
To verify the claims made by propagandists. We performed relevant keyword searches and found multiple reports regarding the incident. According to the reports (1, 2), The incident occurred in Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh, where a young woman named Hina attacked her boyfriend, Ehtesham alias Bablu. The motive behind the assault was that Hina discovered Ehtesham had been planning to marry another woman, despite their ongoing relationship.
Both Hina and Ehtesham are members of the Muslim community, and the incident is rooted in personal issues between the two individuals. There is no connection to Hindus, nor does it involve any interfaith relationship.
Therefore, it is evident from D-Intent Data’s Fact Check that both the victim and accused belong to the same community. Nothing to do with Hindu man and fake identity.
