A total of 129 people have been arrested so far over their alleged<\/a> involvement in clashes that erupted between two communities in West Bengal’s Telinipara after members of one community allegedly taunted the other as “corona”.<\/p>\n

On May 13, Twitter user Anand Kumar posted<\/a> a set of three images with the caption, “\u092a\u0936\u094d\u091a\u093f\u092e \u092c\u0902\u0917\u093e\u0932 \u0915\u0947 \u0939\u0941\u0917\u0932\u0940 \u091c\u093f\u0932\u0947 \u0915\u0947 \u0924\u0947\u0932\u0940\u092a\u093e\u0930\u093e \u092e\u0947\u0902 \u0926\u0932\u093f\u0924 \u0939\u093f\u0928\u094d\u0926\u0941\u0913\u0902 \u0915\u0947 \u0918\u0930\u094b\u0902 \u0915\u094b \u091c\u0932\u093e\u092f\u093e \u091c\u093e \u0930\u0939\u093e \u0939\u0948\u0964 (Houses of Dalit Hindus are being burnt in Telipara in Hooghly district of West Bengal -translated)”.

Alt News found that the images are unrelated to the Telinipara clashes. With the help of Google reverse image search, we found that the first two images of a bleeding man and woman were tweeted by Twitter handle Voice of Pakistan Minority<\/a> on May 11. “Gulab and his wife were attacked by neighbourhood goons in Rahimyar khan, Punjab,” said the tweet. It also alleged that Gulab’s wife was sexually assaulted in public.<\/p>\n

On May 12, Dubai-based Gulf News<\/a> reported, “Blood running down Gulab\u2019s face and his wife equally injured and her clothes torn, screamed and begged for help after being attacked in Pakistan allegedly because they come from a Hindu background.”<\/p>\n

Moreover, we found a tweet by Pakistan’s Punjab police which said that the couple was injured in a clash over a land dispute between them and a Muslim family. The medical reports of the injured are awaited after which further legal action will be taken, according to the tweet.<\/p>\n

The image of the burning house was posted by Facebook page Pakistani Hindu Refugee<\/a> on May 11. It claimed that around 21 Hindu homes were burnt in Tharparkar district in Pakistan’s Sindh region. “The source says that some people, including children, are burnt and in critical condition. This is the condition of Pakistani Hindu in Pakistan.” reads the post.<\/p>\n
