A video showing many people arguing with an elderly man over a woman is widely shared on social media, claiming that the elderly Muslim performed ‘halal’ and married his own granddaughter.
The video is shared on Facebook with a caption: “साल्ला मौज_हब की खुबसूरती के क्या हीं कहने.. एक नमूना देखिए ये मजहब की खूबसुरती.. *अपने ही दादाजी से बीवी का हलाला करवाया। दादाजी को इतना मज़ा आया कि उन्होंने बीवी परमानेंटली ही दबा ली। दादाजी तो दादाजी, बीवी भी बेवफा निकली” (English translation, below.)
