Claim: Video of police digging out a grave to arrest a 'Peer' is from India.
Fact-check: Old video of police in Pakistan digging out the grave of a fake 'Peer' is shared as from India - FACTLY
Verdict: the video is from pakistan and not india. in february 2020, a fake peer in sialkot, punjab , was fooling people into paying huge amounts of money, apparently, to perform 'black magic'. sialkot is a city in pakistan's punjab state. the person defrauded people saying that he would stay in the grave for 40 days, but he was rather living a life with all basic amenities, and various tunnels dug around the grave. the police in pakistan dug out the person from the grave and arrested him. hence, the claim made in the post is false.
