      Fact Check: Viral Video is from Pakistan

      BOOM found that the viral video shows an incident of Hyderabad in Pakistan from August, 2022.

      Through a reverse image search on keyframes of the viral video using Google Lens, we found multiple media reports with similar visuals.

      On August 23, 2022, The Tribune reported a Hindu sanitation worker called Ashok Kumar from Hyderabad situated in Pakistan’s Sindh Province allegedly insulting the holy book of Islam. Police had rescued Ashok from a violent mob of Islamic extremists who were trying to attack him, while Ashok was later arrested on blasphemy charges.


      According to the report, extremist group Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) staged protests on August 21, in front of a building housing Hindu families over the alleged blasphemy incident from August 19.

      The report also quoted a police official stating the sanitation worker was targeted because of personal clash with a local resident.

      An Economic Times article reported the allegation against Kumar was made after he got involved in a brawl with a local shopkeeper called Bilal Abbas. He was booked in a false case of alleged blasphemy over the desecration of the Quran.

      Other media outlets like NDTV, Firstpost and Swarajya also reported on the incident. India Today and CNN News18 has published video reports on the same.
