As soon as the posts containing the claims and video came to our notice, we conducted research and found no such reports of a Bangladesh male being shot dead by the UK Police in London.
However, during the research, we found a report regarding the viral video. As per the report nobody was killed during this chaos in Whitechapel, London. The police have confirmed they believe the disorder was linked to protests that have taken place in Bangladesh, where there have been fatalities.
