No, the video of Lynching shared by a Twitter user is not from India
On July 26, 2023, an Anti-Hindu bigot named Ummah Khan shared a chilling and disturbing video. The video presents a deeply unsettling scene of violence and brutality. The footage captures a horrifying incident where two individuals are seen mercilessly lynching a defenceless person lying on the ground, whose body is covered in blood. However, along with the video Ummah Khan wrote, “This is Hindutva BJP fascist regime so-called democracy, a shame on humanity,” suggesting that the incident allegedly occurred in India and was carried out by Hindu extremists.
So, is it true that the video of the Lynching shared by Ummah Khan is from India and is executed by Hindu extremists? let’s Fact Check.
During our investigation, we first did a reverse search of the video shared by Ummah Khan, aiming to discern the reality behind the disturbing footage. To our astonishment, we stumbled upon a significant revelation during this process – a YouTube video posted on Bilashi TV on the 23rd of May, 2021. As we pressed play, we were confronted once again with the same haunting visuals, mirroring those shared by Ummah Khan.
However, we were shocked to see the reality of the video. According to the Bilashi TV, the incident captured in the video did not originate in India, as initially suggested, but rather, it occurred in Bangladesh. The heart-wrenching scene depicted the horrific murder of a man named Shahin Uddin, who fell victim to a heinous act of violence at the hands of his assailants, in front of his child, in Pallabi, Dhaka, Bangladesh.
As our investigation delved further, we encountered yet another Youtube video that solidified the grim truth of the matter. On News24’s YouTube channel, a video dated May 22, 2023, presented the same haunting visuals as shared by Ummah Khan. The consistency in the footage left no room for doubt – the incident indeed took place in Bangladesh, and the victim was the unfortunate Shahin Uddin.
According to News24’s report, the heart-wrenching tragedy unfolded on May 16, 2023, at approximately 4 pm, in the Pallabi area of the capital, Dhaka. The details that emerged painted a devastating picture – a person named Shahin Uddin, was subjected to a brutal and merciless attack, succumbing to fatal wounds inflicted by a sharp weapon. The most harrowing aspect was that it all happened in front of his innocent child.
After this, we did a keyword search with the words, the person killed in front of his child in Bangladesh. During this, we came across a report by Daily Bangladesh, posted on May 20, 2021, which presented a detailed account of the appalling tragedy that had taken place. The visuals in this report mirrored those shared by Ummah Khan, solidifying the veracity of the incident’s location in Bangladesh, where the victim, Shahin Uddin, met a horrifying fate at the hand of Md. Sumon Bepari was the mastermind behind the brutal lynching.
According to this report, the chain of events that unfolded on that fateful day began with two young individuals named Sumon and Titu summoning Shahin Uddin. Deceptively, they assured him that the long-standing “land dispute” would finally be resolved. Unaware of the impending danger, Shahin Uddin heeded their call and rode on his motorcycle towards House No. 40, Road No. 31, D-Block, Pallabi.
However, as he reached the location, the treachery of the situation became evident. A group of 14-15 people, including Sumon and Titu, ambushed Shahin Uddin, forcibly dragging him into the confines of a garage within the house and unleashing a relentless and brutal assault upon Shahin Uddin, wielding machetes, Chinese axes, and other sharp weapons with ruthless abandon due to which Shahin Uddin died on the spot.
Hence, all these points prove that the distressing footage shared by Ummah Khan is, in fact, not from India, nor was it carried out by Hindu extremists. Instead, the video captures a deeply unsettling incident that occurred two years ago in 2021 in Bangladesh, where a man named Shahin Uddin fell victim to a brutal lynching in the midst of a land dispute.
