Claim: Videos of Kolkata rape victim's final moments, recorded by herself, and her dead body being transported in the hospital.
Fact-check: Old & Unrelated Videos are Falsely Shared as Related to Kolkata Doctor's Murder & Rape Incident - FACTLY
Verdict: the woman in the first video is identified as zeenat rehman, an artist who shares her makeover videos on social media. according to the kolkata police, the actual victim's body was found in a gruesome state at the hospital, making it unlikely that she recorded herself during or after the attack. zeenat rehman has no connection to the kolkata rape case. the second video is an old clip from visakhapatnam, showing praveen mehta, a jalore resident now living in visakhapatnam and running a cosmetics business. his son vipin died in a road accident on 29 may 2024, and the family donated his organs. the hospital honoured vipin with a 'guard of honour.' both videos are unrelated to the kolkata rape victim. hence, the claims made in the posts are false.
