Claim: Visuals of Hindu extremists thrashing a Muslim man in Delhi.
Fact-check: Video of a Muslim man being assaulted by mob is being shared with a false communal angle - FACTLY
Verdict: it is true that the viral visuals show a muslim man being assaulted by a mob, however, the reason for the assault is alleged stalking and harassment of a minor girl by the man. police have registered a case against the person under pocso act upon the complaint of the minor girl. multiple news agencies have reported the incident. the assault had no communal angle linked to it. hence the claim made in the post is misleading.
