A video of a man raising pro-Pakistan slogans while being beaten-up by a mob has gone viral on social media. Twitter user Asfandyar Bhittani, who is based in Pakistan, tweeted<\/a> the video suggesting that person was Kashmiri and he was being forced to raise “Pakistan Murdabad” slogans.<\/p>\n

This is heart wrenching. Indians beat & try to force a Kashmiri to say Pakistan murdabad (Death to Pak), he takes a beating but risks his live to chant #PakistanZindabad<\/a> (Long Live Pakistan) in defiance. This is what a true Pakistani looks like. #Kashmir<\/a> #FinalStrike<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/PBmEAbAKwt<\/a><\/p>\n

A Facebook handle Hindutva Yuva<\/a> has shared a set of videos of the same person raising pro-Pakistan slogans with the message, “23\/59 \u0924\u093f\u0932\u0915 \u0928\u0917\u0930 1st \u092b\u094d\u0932\u094b\u0930 \u0938\u0947 \u0915\u094b\u0908 \u0906\u0926\u092e\u0940 \u0930\u094b\u091c \u092a\u093e\u0915\u093f\u0938\u094d\u0924\u093e\u0928 \u091c\u093f\u0902\u0926\u093e\u092c\u093e\u0926 \u0915\u0947 \u0928\u093e\u0930\u0947 \u0932\u0917\u093e\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948 \u0906\u091c \u092d\u0940 \u0932\u0917\u093e \u0930\u0939\u093e \u0939\u0948\u0964\u0905\u092c \u0907\u0938\u0915\u093e \u0915\u094d\u092f\u093e \u0915\u0930\u0928\u093e \u0939\u0948 \u0964\u0906\u0938 \u092a\u093e\u0938 \u0915\u0947 \u092d\u093e\u0908 \u0932\u094b\u0917 \u0906\u092a \u0926\u0947\u0916\u094b\u0964(A man from the first floor of 23\/59 Tilak Nagar chants pro-Pakistan slogans everyday.

\"\"<\/p>\n

Many other individuals on Facebook<\/a> and Twitter<\/a> have shared the video with the same misleading narrative about a man who hurls pro-Pakistan slogans on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What is the Truth?<\/h2>\n

The man who is seen raising pro-Pakistan slogans in multiple videos has been deemed to be mentally challenged. An report<\/a> published by India Today on February 28, 2018, stated, “A mentally unstable man was thrashed by some people for allegedly shouting pro-Pakistan slogans in West Delhi’s Tilak Nagar area, police said on Thursday.”<\/em>\u00a0 The residents of the area had beaten the man for shouting pro-Pak slogans and later handed him over to the police. According to the statement by police officials in the above report, no case has been registered against the man as he has been mentally challenged for the past couple of years. We have reached out to the Delhi police for a statement, but we are still awaiting their response.<\/p>\n

In conclusion, videos of a mentally challenged person shouting pro-Pakistan slogans is being shared with varying false or incomplete narratives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
