Fact Check: Man in Viral Video Admitting to Raping Daughter Is NOT from India, But Pakistan

Date:

A video has surfaced on the internet showing a man standing behind the bars admitting to sexually assaulting his own daughter. It has been claimed that the viral video is from India and the man belongs to a particular religion.

The caption with the video reads: “पत्नी बीमार है तो मुस्ताक अहमद ने अपनी हीं सगी बेटी के साथ बलात्कार कर दिया। (English translation: When wife was ill, Mustaq Ahmed raped his own daughter.)

His wife was ill, so this 60-year-old Indian Muslim admits he raped his 25-year-old daughter to satiate his sexual urges.”

FACT CHECK

NewsMobile fact-checked the above post, and found it to be misleading.

On closely observing the video, we noticed that the man in the video, who goes by the name Mushtaq Ahmed, stated that he was a resident of ‘Shah Town’.

Upon looking up, we found that ‘Shah Town‘ is an area in Karachi, Pakistan.

The same video had been also posted by a Facebook page 4 News Pakistan, dated October 21, 2022, stating that the video in question was from Pakistan. Another such post can be seen here.

Hence, the above information establishes that the incident is from Pakistan and is being falsely shared as from India.
