Full Reportपूरी रिपोर्ट
Fact-checkers traced the clip shared on October 29, 2026, by accounts such as Bharat Unfiltered, Mir Ilyas, Muhd Shere Aalam and Gen-Z of India to the YouTube channel “Amit Dixit Social Message”. One of its Shorts, posted on September 21, 2025, and titled "पुलिस के सामने की टीचर की पिटाई" (“Teacher beaten in front of the police”), shows the same woman in police uniform and the same man in a skullcap and green shirt in an office setting. The channel’s videos carry an on-screen disclaimer in Hindi stating that the names, religions, professions, places and incidents shown are fictional, that the content has no connection to any real person or event, and that any resemblance is coincidental. The channel’s Shorts section is full of similar staged scenes featuring the same actors in police uniforms, at roadsides, in offices and beside trucks. The viral clip is a scripted skit, not a real case of police misconduct. Giving it a communal caption and urging Muslims to “stand up against injustice” turns fiction into a divisive narrative, so such videos should be traced to their original creator before being shared.
