Several other users who are followed by Goyal’s Office also circulated the images with the identical narrative (1<\/a>, 2<\/a>, 3<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A parody account<\/a> of journalist Sweta Singh propagated the ‘Muslim attacked Hindu girl’ as well, drawing over 300 retweets. This was also viral on Facebook with BJP worker Roshan Pandey’s post<\/a> shared nearly 7,000 times. It was also circulated by Facebook pages and groups –\u00a0\u0939\u093f\u0928\u094d\u0926\u0942 \u0930\u093e\u091c<\/a> (Hindu Raj) and\u00a0\ud83d\udd49\u0939\u093f\u0928\u094d\u0926\u0942 \u090f\u0915\u0924\u093e \u0926\u0932\ud83d\udd49<\/a>\u00a0(Hindu ekta dal).<\/p>\n

Fake news website\u00a0Dainik Bharat<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>published an article titled –\u00a0“Gopalganj: Priyanka Kushwaha resisted, attacked by Abdul who tried to brutally wound her<\/em>\u00a0(translated).” The report was shared 1,000 times from the website.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Woman attacked by man from the same community<\/strong><\/h2>\n

An October 11 report in\u00a0Prabhat Khabar<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>stated that a woman was attacked by a man named Sandeep Giri on her way back home from a temple. The perpetrated assaulted her with a knife when his advances were rejected. The incident took place in Kateya, Gopalganj in Bihar.<\/p>\n

To corroborate the media outlet’s version, Alt News contacted Gopalganj District Magistrate IAS Animesh Kumar Parashar. He informed that the man arrested was not a member of the Muslim community and claims on social media suggesting otherwise are only an attempt to communalise the issue.\u00a0“Action will be taken against the ones spreading the rumours,”\u00a0<\/em>said Kumar.<\/p>\n

As the name of the survivor and the district where the incident occurred was known, Alt News searched for a complaint that might have been lodged by the survivor. We found a copy of the FIR filed at Kateya police station on the Bihar Crime Records Bureau<\/a> website.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

According to the FIR, a 23-year-old man named Sandeep Giri held the 20-year-old survivor by her wrist and harassed her when she was returning home from a temple. On resisting the assault, he attacked her with a knife. When the woman tried to escape he slit her shoulders and back. As several locals gathered to save her, the perpetrator escaped.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Communalising a crime in order to swing the narrative against minority communities isn’t a new phenomenon. Recently, provocative media reporting falsely linked the murder of 31-year-old Ankit Garg<\/a> to members of the Muslim community, leading to hate-mongering along communal lines. Earlier this year, Alt News compiled<\/a> a list of 20 instances when minorities were targetted in a similar fashion to create a fear psychosis. Such propaganda is an attempt to aggravate the religious divide by exploiting the existing societal prejudice. Provocative narratives deprived of credible media sources should always be verified before furthering them online.<\/p>\n

[The District Magistrate of Gopalganj was inadvertently referred to as Rahul Kumar who is the former DM. Alt News spoke to Animesh Kumar Parashar who is the current DM of Gopalganj. The article has been updated with the same.]<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
