CLAIM
A tweet from a Pakistani handle @da_watan_lewany posted a video of two injured women, claiming that Indian Hindus were entering the homes of Muslims and killing them without any reason.
The video showed a woman bleeding from her lips and face, while another was trying to wake her up. The audio message claimed that the incident occurred in Jhansi, Baruasagar.
The tweet asked the Pakistanis to value their army which was “protecting them from the Hindus.”

This video was also posted on a Facebook page called ‘Pakistan Defence Command’.
TRUE OR FALSE?
This claim is false. A reverse search shows that the video is actually from 2018 and from Telangana’s Hyderabad.
A Telangana cop beat up his wife and mother-in-law after he was caught having an affair with another woman.
WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED
According to The News Minute, SI Samudrala Jitender SK Parveen, an advocate, fell in love and got married in 2015. Speaking to the media, SK Praveen alleged things took a turn for the worse when the cop forcefully made her get an abortion when he learnt she was carrying a girl child. She also claimed that he was cheating on her with another woman.
A probe was launched against the cop, after which he was suspended.
