•Old video falsely portrayed as showing deadly India mosque survey clashes in 2024
69% Informative
Clashes erupted in November 2024 in Sambhal city in northern Uttar Pradesh state sparked by a survey into whether a centuries-old mosque was built on a Hindu temple.
But footage circulating online of police officers beating men wearing Muslim caps is unrelated to the recent clashes.
The clip was filmed in a district hundreds of kilometres (miles) away from the city and corresponds to videos published in 2019 news reports about a controversial citizenship law.
