Against the backdrop of the Shraddha Walkar murder case, a gory video showing injury marks on the body of a girl and a boy being arrested by the police is widely shared on social media — with a communal spin — claiming that this incident happened in Madhya Pradesh.
The video is shared on Facebook with a caption: “मेरा अब्दुल वैसा नही है मेने उसके नाम का टैटू भी करवाया है में मुस्लिम बनने को भी तैयार हु उसी ने उसका रेप कर के काट दिया ताजा मामला MP” (English translation: My Abdul is not like that, I have also got his name tattooed, I am ready to become a Muslim, he raped and killed her, in the latest case MP)
